DECS has found 2 different free software that allow for virtualization on Mac. VMware Fusion Player and VirtualBox. We have found VMware Fusion to be the easier of the two products to install, but does require that you create an account in order to download it.

We can not guarantee compatibility with older versions of OSX.
