If it's an intel based mac then another option is to install parallels, 
vmware or virtualbox and then run an old version of windows inside that, 
I personaly use parallels for windows7 and xp environments and 
virtualbox for solaris , because I find they work best for me, parallels 
is better with windows and virtualbox for solaris - we use vmware on 
PC's here but on my mac I think parallels is best, Virtualbox however is 
free!

There is no need then to reboot into windows
