Which emulators work?

Morning,

Does anyone run FH using an application emulator on a mac?
I dont want to give up FH since moving from PC to mac.
I have ruled out using bootcamp and partitioning the hard-drive, and am left with 2 options - installing a virtual machine (virtualbox, parallels etc) or using application emulator.
Ideally I am trying to keep the costs low and buying a full version of windows for the VM is a considerable cost.
Therefore I am interested to know if anyone runs FH in an application emulator that doesnt require installing windows, and if so, how it functions.

Thanks

If you have V5 I have heard it mostly works with CrossOver, so you could try that first (PDF does not work, but you should be able to print to the Mac PDF printer).

If you have owned a PC which has been scrapped (eg your old PC), you could use the windows license from that one to install, using a VM.
