I've tried it using virtual pc on my powerbook 1.33 ghz and it works
just fine. I also use Safelog on my vpc because there's not much in the
way of logbooks on the mac and this works fine too. I think it's
extremely comfortable to be able to use software that's too specialized
to ever get released for the mac without needing 2 computers.

Funny how it always ends up a raging OS war though.... "My daddy is
stronger than your daddy"!

I tried to go to the AOPA Flight Planning web page today, and found
that the only option remaining is to download a Microsoft-only
application. This seems annoying.

Sure, I was able to go directly to the duat web site, and it was fine.
But I'm a member of AOPA, and they've eliminated a benefit from my use
merely because I prefer to use a more robust computing environment.

Especially given what's going on with viruses, worms, zombie machines,
and the like, requiring that AOPA members used one particular unsafe
platform to exercise an organization benefit seems foolish.

Has this issue been raised to AOPA and ignored? Is something in the
works for the rest of us? Anyone here know what's going on?
