  • Windows XP SP2, Windows Vista or Windows 7 (Home or Professional editions)
  • Internet Explorer version 6 or greater
  • Microsoft Outlook 2003 SP2 or greater

And if you can run the software above on your PC, and it runs adequately, then your hardware specification is going to be fine for Results Freak.


If you are running a Mac rather than a PC, then here’s what you need to do.

  • You’ll need to have VMware Fusion or Parallels Desktop installed on your Mac.
  • You’ll need to install a version of Windows (see above).
  • Then use the Unity feature to run Windows programs as if they were desktop programs on your Mac.

Please note: if you want to run the Outlook plugin on your Mac, you’ll also have to install Windows Office on the Windows virtual machine. The Outlook plugin provided does not run on Mac Microsoft Outlook.


In addition, please ensure that you’re running an Intel Mac (not a PowerPC) to make sure that it supports Windows VM.
