Minor Wine Warning for Mac Users
  • Hey all, just a heads up for those of you who use wine to run ptools -- there seems to be some sort of bug where it can stay running in the background and chew up 30 percent or more of your CPU. I was getting atrocious battery life for the last while, popped open the activity monitor and discovery not only was Wine still running in the background, it was eating most of my cpu power. Forced it to quit, and voila, problem solved. But just a heads up for any mac user in case you have noticed your battery life slipping precipitously -- this may be the cause. The solution -- open activity monitor and force quit wine.
