As I'm building my to-do list, this is a big one... It's not a dealbreaker, but my main computer is a Mac. We've have PCs but using the Macs are more convenient.
So, does anyone use or know if what, if any, software is Mac-compatible?

Nope - nothing - you have to do the virtual thing.

Re: Mac-compatible software
If you search the fourm on "mac + 'software name'", you'll find discussions on how others have handled this situation.
It may be easier for you to just use one of your Windows machines.

Bootcamp (lots better than Parallels or Virts). There just is no software for Macs yet (and believe me I've been there!)

Re: Mac-compatible software
I am running Windows XP Professional under Boot camp on one machine... and it works great!
Then on another Mac, I have Parallels and VM Fusion running XP Pro. Parallels works very well (although slower at reading the card). With VM Fusion, I had a lot of card reader errors. Not to mention it just runs generally slower than Parallels.
Parallels is very good and easy to install. Boot Camp gives a true Windows experience. That said from a long time Mac user.

Re: Mac-compatible software
I use Linux both at home and on my work desktop workstation. I use my work Windows laptop to run my CPAP software -- and that is about all that it is used for.
