Can I run the Discrete Trial Trainer on a Mac?
Currently the DT Trainer is only available for IBM compatibles. Fortunately, Macs and IBMs are no longer 2 or 3 thousand dollars and a box can be purchased for as little as $400 - $500. Businesses are currently buying 3 Gigahertz computers and giving away their old 600+ Megahertz systems (a good computer for our software). If these options are not viable, we recommend looking into VirtualPC, which is a software package that allows you to install the Windows operating system on top of the Mac OS. More information about this software can be found at http://www.microsoft.com/virtualpc/.
Our revenues will dictate how quickly we will be able to do a Mac version. For now, school districts are generally running IBM compatibles, or are mixed. Some districts are strictly MAC but many are in the process of incorporating both.
To keep our prices low, we develop for the systems that most of the market have. The volume of potential customers with PCs allows us to charge just $149 for home and $349 for a school computer.
