Yes, but you need to be running Windows natively or in an emulator.

So, no..it isnt compatible.
We are all aware of the options available to mac users who want to run PC only programs.

Thank you though.
It was the clarification I was looking for.

John, you should label your updates with version numbers so we can show progression and so ppl will know they have the latest.

This one being Version 2.5?

Why not just buy a PC with the same specs? It's the same thing....

Asus UX32VD, nuff said.

Back on topic, this doesn't use a USB to COM driver does it? Those can be a PITA...

One option would be to get a little $300 cheap Windows for things like this.
