Sopcast on Mac OSX

 I've managed to get something working that a lot of mac users seem to be desperate for - sopcast.

You need a few different bits of software but I now have sopcast working perfectly on my macbook.

You will first need to download "Crossover"

Once installed, open the program and install internet explorer 6 (the programme automates this process for you)

Then go to the Microsoft website and download the .exe file for Media player 7.

Open crossover again and select "install unsupported application" - browser to the media player 7 .exe and install

Return to microsoft and download media player 9 and repeat the steps above.

Finally download sopcast .exe file from the sopcast site and install as above.

Sopcast can now be run from the applications folder!

to which folder to you install sopcast? the default location is program files. Obviously there's no such folder in a MAC
