    i went to the site and it looks like the file is .exe which is a windows format. unless they have a specific download that is for macintosh, you won't be able to download it.

    you can get around this by getting the program that lets you run windows on a mac, but that's expensive.

    You should be able to use boot camp which will run the whole machinre in Windows from the time you start up.

    Otherwise if you get VMware or Fusion (i thinks its them, google windows on Mac)you can run them side by side at the same time.

    get a real pc brotha.

    1.) download bootcamp (not expensive because it's free) and install windows.

    2.) install your favorite poker software

    3.) hate your life because you still have to deal with fucking microsoft fucking windows.

    get on a real poker site that supports mac brotha.

    bootcamp comes with the macs, it's really easy. if you have a windows CD (or if you get one from the bay of pirates, PM me for link to good one) then you just can set up your computer to have both the Mac operating system and Windows on it and you can choose which one to boot into each time you start up your computer.

    I do this and I have it set to boot to Windows 7 each time because I loveeee W7. (got the mac before W7)
