    VMWare Fusion

    If using a Corporate View Library you will probably have to copy that local to the Fusion VM since it's doubtful the user has an Enterprise Image in their VM that has internal network access.

    It would be easier for all if Corporate View Libraries could use HTTP instead of NFS: Open Workbench Corporate View Library in CA PPM.

    I agree VMWare is the most promising. (I use VMWare on Windows and run OWB on it)
    Years ago there were attempts to run OWB On Linux with Wine and Crossover. Eventually the attempts dried up as nobody reported having been successful in running OWB with an Windows emulator.

    The Unity feature allows Open Workbench to run on the Mac desktop alongside native mac apps.
