Thanks for info i was looking at "Parallels Desktop 5.0 for Mac" but i really didn't want anything to do with Windows OS on my mac in fear of slowing it down or just the typical windows OS drama..

No problem with the help guys. I had XP running on Parallels when it didn't work. The software would work on it but the computer with the T-Max wouldn't see the bike no matter what I used and tried and I do an IT guy. The Race tuner software kept crashing. After getting a real PC laptop they both work with no issues.

I have had a few more issues with Windows on Macs and getting various accessories to work connected to it.
