Visual Studio 2005 on Mac OS X

Utilizing Parallels 3.0 http://www.parallels.com/en/products/desktop/ I am able to run Visual Studio 2005 on my Macbook (Mac OS X). Parallels Coherence makes it seem that I am running Visual Studio right inside my Mac desktop window instead of a separate virtualized window.

Here are some larger screenshots:

Uninstall Mono on Mac OS X

To uninstall Mono on OS X utilize the uninstallMono.sh script. Where is it? How do you get it?

Utilize Finder to browse to /Library/Receipts. View the package contents of Contents/Resources/MonoFramework.pkg.

Drag a copy of uninstallMono.sh to the desktop. Open a Terminal window. Then cd desktop and run: sudo ./uninstallMono.sh and enter your password.

Mono on Mac OS X is then uninstalled (bin, Frameworks, etc.)
