    Why do you mac users even bother asking, when you know half the stuff out there can't be run on it?

    You... have no clue, do you? You've never used a mac, or Linux, for that matter, I'm guessing.

    You can run PWI on a Mac using Wine, or a similar Windows application on a Mac/Linux software set.

    There's a number of people doing so, both on Apple OS X and Linux.

    Also Mac is **** and Linux is... Far from user friendly for this sort of operation. Good old windows is just doubleclick-install <3

    Not really.

    There's Linux distros that are working on being as userfriendly as possible. My Aunt uses Ubuntu.

    However... Mac... It's based on a good idea. However... Attempting to just a simple thing took me several hours, and was wrought with frustration and anger. What was I trying to do? Connect to a network printer, on my dual PIII printserver. >______> It was so fail, I have no words to describe it properly. And before you say 'just plug the printer straight into it', that doesn't work because the printer is a huge, ungainly box sitting in the closet, with the print server, and the computer is Macbook Pro, which never comes in this room to begin with. >_>
