Running OCAD on an Intel-based Mac is possible. There are different ways which can be used.
Virtual Machines
OCAD can be run perfectly within a virtual machine.
Virtual Box
The advantage of VirtualBox is that it is free. Well, at least the software is free but you will need a Windows license in addition which can cause costs. To show how it looks like, we installed VirtualBox on a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X Mountain Lion and took some screenshots.

VirtualBox can also be used with Linux and Solaris systems as a host.

At the moment, there are no problems known.
BootCamp
OCAD can also be run on a Mac with help of BootCamp.
