    Anyone have a Mac?

    Going to start converting my programs over to a language that runs both on Mac and Windows. However I don't have a mac to test on (currently). And will need help testing.

    How do you plan on converting so it can run on Mac without a Mac? :l Besides, if you target Mac you might as well target all unix-based systems

    I'm getting a Mac, once I sort out my new Job. But I have some free time now.

    And I'm just using Real Studio. Not really looking to learn another Language for now.

    Linux is also supported.

    Real Studio...sounds like a shit VB-esque program for cross-browser. Why not learn a good language like C++ or Java?

    Also, Virtual Machines work wonders. Just saying.

    Because learning a new language would take extra time, and I dont plan on using it outside of personal use/neopets/etc.

    Real Studio is pretty much VB for Mac and Linux. And you don't need to change anything to have it build for each platform.

    Learning a real language makes you more versatile and gives you opportunities to make some real cash

    Also, I shouldn't have to say but if you choose to test, its at your own risk.

    It looks like if it runs in Windows it runs on a Mac. Builds both at the same time.

    Testing might not be needed.

    Still don't understand why you don't just use virtual machines
