Using our CD-ROMs with Macintosh.

A number of people have asked about using our product on the Macintosh computer. 

We, of course, would like to make our products available to as many users as possible. Unfortunately, we do not currently have the resources to support a version for both the PC and the Macintosh.

Retrospector, our document viewer, was designed to run under Windows (95 and newer), and will not run on a Macintosh.

We have successfully used one of our CD-ROMs on a Macintosh computer by utilizing a special software program.  The software program allows use of Windows based programs to run on the Macintosh.  There are at least two of these programs currently available.  .

However, we cannot recommend this solution to anyone else solely on the basis of a single successful attempt.  We do not ourselves have experience using either of these programs, and cannot offer any technical support for their use.
