  • Mac book Air Simulator

    Hi,

    Would anybody have any information to weather I could get a sim on my Mac book air? I am never in one place,so the little Apple laptop was perfect for me, now comes a time when I'd like a sim but don't think I can as I have no cd drive? Is there a downloadable version?

    Dnt fancy spending out for a new pc.

    be greatful for any help and advice.

    Paul

          As he said

          I tried every avenue and the only way IMO is Bootcamp and windows. Then use a flash drive to get the software on.

                            I'm lost with all of this, so there isn't one I can download and order the lead for etc?

                            Basically I need to get windows on my apple laptop then use a flash drive to put the program on?
