    none. .exe are windows program files, they can't be run on macs.



    sorry.



    'course this means that you don't get viruses, so there's some benefit.

    your forgetting Virtual PC. it emulates a wintel computer within your mac, and from w/i it, you can run *.exe (windows executable) files.
