Ok, so I really don't want to shell out the cash for a VM solution or dual boot. I would really like to run these exe file on my macbook though as they are for class and it would be very useful to be able to run them for extra credit while on the go. I'm just kind of hoping a veteran here will have an easy solution.

They are definitely swf embeds but I cant seem to extract the files. I tried running them in darwine but I'm probably doing something terribly wrong since i couldn't even get the sample apps to run in darwine.

Here is a link to one of the files http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/654627/tutorials.zip

Any help would be appreciated. I'm new to mac but not to computers so no need to super dumb it down for me, just point me in the right direction if you can. It's probably worth some extra credit since even the professor is a Mac user and he said he couldn't figure it out. (he's chem not CS so didn't really expect him to)

Thanks in advance.
