Fortunately I also have a PC laptop I use to run my trains. Not much RR support for us Mac users. Thanks for the info, I will check it out. <br />Terry <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Since I do a lot of graphics in my business, I like the Mac platform. I also use iTunes for DJing on my laptop. You are right that there isn't a whole lot of MRR support for the Mac as it would be a very, very small nitch market. But... There is some! The JMRI Community is producing software for DCC including "Decoder Pro", Panel Pro, LocoNet Tools, General Tools, and Layout Animation for Mac OSX. Here is a link to it: http://jmri.sourceforge.net/ Glad I started to search the software on Apple.com. I had thought we Appleheads were just out of luck.... [:D] <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Depending on the windows application, MSTS wouldn't work, but some othe the basic applications I would imagine run fine using the windows emulator VirtualPC. I have used it a bit with programs for windows that aren't graphic intense. <br /> <br />I think we will see (Mac users) a bit of a change when Steve Jobs releases the Intel based Apple OS. Though not sure if that will be a Good Thing™
