I use Parallels with a Macbook Pro(late 2016) with 4 USB C ports and Mojave 10.14.6

Marcel, is it really important not to use the Mac for other applications when doing astronomy? Also, I have a second older mac that I can use when my newer make is doing astronomy so I don't have to worry about loosing the use of my Max while imaging. In response to Marcelofig, I had somebody make a 3 inch hole on the wall of my house so that my telescope cables come into my living room and the Mac never goes outside. My No 2 concern is that running the Mac with Parallels makes me a little bit of a nice user and that some equipement and software providers like Diffraction Limited or DC3 Dreams will finder it harder (or even too hard) to provide necessary tech support, of which I need a lot since I am marginally competent. Could this be caused by Parallels not being a 100% perfect emulation of the PC and WIndows. Maybe I should say that they crash a little too often. My No 1 concern is that my Diffraction Limited Aluma694 camera with Maxim DL seem to disconnect from time to time.

It seems that I am not alone in using parallels, which is good Many thanks to Cometeer, MJGood, Marcelgofig, RonaldNC for your helpful comments
