Yeah, there are a couple of ways to run Window's based programs on a Mac, you can use the dual boot feature or run a program called Parallels which gives you the virtual method. I believe there are or used to be a couple of other ways but I have the Mac 27" desktop, not a practical machine to lug out to the garage

I use Veepeak OBDCheck BLE+ on m X3, its a bit slow but not that bad on the X3 which doesn't have nearly the number of puters the X5 has.
