Is student version mac comapatable?

[Jen]

I just downloaded the GWB for students, to give it a try on my Mac, and the window which opened contained many lines of script which began with this:

MZêˇˇ∏@»∫¥    Õ!∏LÕ!This program cannot be run in DOS mode.

Any idea if the program can be run on a Mac, and how I can download/launch it so it will work?

Thanks

Hello Jen,

You can run GWB on a Mac by using a Windows emulator such as Parallels. Another option is to set up dual boot configuration using a program such as Boot Camp. You can find more information here.

Thank you.  I will try Boot Camp.
