Yup, you need Virtual PC
(http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/1006) or some other
emulator. Good luck setting it up, it sucks and is slow. I hope you have a
fast machine. You might be better off using a Mac version of Corel Draw
(http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/12549) (I assume it will
open Corel for PC filetypes). What Mac OS are you using, and which Mac do
you have?
