I'm quite anti apple but macbooks runnning osx make much better use of the hardware than linux.<br>
What works well is to run a fullscreeb vm<br>
If you have a retina display then parallels scaled is better than VirtualBox. Also parallels disk performace is nearer the native 2000 odd MB/s.<br>

But mythfrontend works nicely in both. I've tried both 30 and 31<br>
