    Ron I wouldn't know how to use that copy and if I did I know the product key would be impossible to find.

    Whichever way you end up doing this, you'll need a copy of Windows to run OziExplorer. Either on a new PC that comes with it (probably the cheapest option), or dual boot Mac (likely to cost a bit more) or Mac running Windows under VMWare fusion. The latter is only about $65 more than the other mac option for the VMware license. In my view worth it if you are going to swap between mac/windows applications a lot as you won't need to reboot all the time. But it's your money...

    Don't use parallels. its crap.
    No it's not. I've been using it for three years and it does everything required of it. If you have a Windows PC, Parallels will copy Windows from the PC to the Mac and use that copy as its VM. Easy.
