If a Person has their family history on a PC (on Legacy), and obtains an Apple Computer, how can they transfer their history on to the Apple, given that Legacy does not support Apple? (well not the free version)

I have a PC world within my mac. This is not a cheap solution! But I set up the environment for a different application - genealogy software is just benefiting from it.
If you wanted to pursue that option, there's two emulators that I know of - VM Fusion (the one that I use) and Parallels. There's a third, but I can't remember the name.
Please keep in mind: not only do you need to buy the emulator software, but you must also buy a Windows operating system to run within the emulator environment.
It would allow you to keep running the PC apps you're accustomed to.
