Firetip runs natively on Mac, see the thread on Firetip here. It runs on Mac or any other OS 'cos it is a Java based software. Any Java or Web based platform would run on Mac.
I've been able to successfully install and run SierraCharts on my Mac but in a VMwareFusion virtual Linux machine (I suppose you know what I mean) environment, have a look at here and here. You may wish to know that SierraCharts runs on Ubuntu too, see here.
Lolu mentions VMWare which i have no experience with personally. I use Parallels with XP installed on my mac to run whatever trading program I want. If you don't want to pay for VMWare/Parallels there's also a free program called Virtualbox that works very well. You just have to get your hands on a copy of Windows then.
Sorry i can't post any links, don't have enough posts here. Google is your friend
I may be wrong but I thought with Boot camp you literally have to choose which OS you boot at start up? With the programs i mentioned above you can run them within Mac OS and have the best of both worlds.
The setup I have is my laptop running Mac OS and parallels with windows sent to an external monitor. Works pretty well.
