None what so ever!

 

Buy Parallels and you can use it better that way, far more stable. Although, I managed to get it to work on a macbook last year. I'll look into how I did it for you.

 

Getting Macbook Pro tomorrow, so will try again and submit how to install standard on a MAC, think I edited the installation file.

hey thanks alex I ended up sending a message to cat at highend and asked her.. this is what she said

 

Hello Rex-

Hog3PC was designed to run on a Windows XP-based, PC machine. This was

not designed for, or tested on, Mac based equipment (even Intel Macs

running XP). What this means is that while you may be able to install

the program: we cannot accurately tell you what types of problems you

may or may not encounter using this other system. Officially: we cannot

support it on a Mac system. This means that when you run into a problem

on this system: we may not be able to fix it for you because your

computer runs outside of our specifications. However, many users still

use the program on their Mac at their own risk. If you take a look at

our forums (forums.highend.com), you'll be able to read posts from other

end users who are attempting to use a Mac system.

 

 

sounds to me like she is saying try it but dont come to me when it screws things up. this is okay im not using any of these programs to output any DMX threw a node. just want to use them offline so I can do some work at home. also I have this iphone synced to grand ma project going on as well.. its working just not working well

 

thanks again let me know how it goes with the macbook pro

Sounds like the people don't realise that an Intel mac running XP (via Boot Camp) is a Windows PC. There is absolutely no difference. That, or it's just a way of weaseling out of supporting it....
