[Macpartners] Intel Macs and SapGui 6.4

[Jonathan Hunt]

Hi Tom,

You can also access SAPgui via Citrix on Intel-Based Macs.

http://citrix.mit.edu/

That is what I currently use when I need SAPgui native functions like  
Detailed Transaction Reports that aren't available via SAPweb.

Running SAPgui under Windows XP on Intel-based Macintoshes is not  
supported by IS&T and requires the use of beta products, such as Boot  
Camp from Apple.  In doing some testing of Boot Camp, I had to  
reinstall my machine from scratch and restore from Backup after Boot  
Camp wiped my system and left it unbootable.

As IS&T has more information about the timeline for an SAPgui version  
for the Intel based Macs, we will communicate that to Mac Partners.   
You can also check the link that Al sent about the blog for  
information on other products on Intel based Macs:
