I’ve blogged about it before. Well, it was more a kind of ‘wishing out loud’. But just yet the Google Earth fairy brought me a package. It looks, smells and tastes like a Mac app. Unfortunately I’m at work and my Mac is at home. So I cannot be sure. [...] […] Or is it??? I’ve blogged about it before.

But for many a mainstream Windows-only-app, there's a Mac alternative or equivalent (games excluded). In the case of Google Earth there clearly is no native Mac application that let's you 'fly' around a 3D earth. Fluently perusing continents, then zooming into a specific beach (spotting towels) and zipping of to the south-pole discovering islands never heard of before. I certainly haven't discovered something equal or alternate. I'm not even talking 'extensibility' here. Some people have suggested Google Maps (now Local) or FlashEarth. But that still only is 2D. A flat representation of the world, so no travelling through mountain ranges or subduction zones. 2D Maps have been on the web for ages. These are some reasons I'd like to see GE on the Mac. And Virtual PC is one way to go. But you'll need a hefty Mac to run it smoothly. Keeping an eye on my stats I can tell you 'Google Earth for Mac' is THE most requested item (couple of thousand unique requests and going). So there definitively is a market for this. As for other 'Windows-only' apps ... which specific kinds are you refering to? Petition anyone? :-) @Michael: True.

You need to get VPC. When we purchased macs we understood that we would have to run MAC software. This isn't the only app we would like to run that is "WINDOWS ONLY" So get VPC, and stop griping about it! Hey guys guess what! You need to get VPC.

I had the opportunity to use it on a friend's PC, and was looking forward to installing it on my mac. That's when I discovered the bad news. I feel deglected.
