Hi Ronni & WAMUG'rs, Many thanks for that link Ronni. It does look promising specially in view of the fact that one does not need to purchase a copy of the 'Dark Side OS' to run the applications.
I do not have an Intel-Mac as yet, possibly this coming January or February, but am interested to know if anyone has had hands-on experience with the product. If it does what the site says, that would be ideal for the odd application or two, but I do intend to keep supporting financially, ie purchase, Mac softwares which I find elegant and reliable. Regards all, Philippe -- You can't direct the wind, but you can adjust your sails.
