no... its for Windows
you can always try to use an PC emulator on the mac, like VirtualPC (from Microsoft)
But no garantees it will work.

less than 5% of all the Personal Computer in the world are an Apple
why develope for mac ??? less than 5%
(it is my personal opinion)

But to be fair to mac those 5% are mostly used by Audio/Visual creative types where programs such as logic,final cut pro,Avid,ProtoolsTD which are apple platform industry standard music and video editing tools. I Use both platforms but appriate the do it yourself expandability of PC's although the tighter compatibility of macs may make a more uniform and predictable behavour between hardware and software.

@nitebeat, I like the way you compare MAC & WIN.
Many people give MAC an unfair advantage over WIN, or UNIX over WIN. But in reality, WIN is a superior platform in that it is more versitile to deal with the fairly loose hardware structure that it must contend with. Note that this is also the reason that programs like vDJ are not perfect. Not all WIN hardware is alike.... unlike MAC and UNIX, where development knows exactly what to expect from the hardware.

The closest I have ever came to using a MAC is my iPOD so I do not feel I am qualified to get into a MAC vs. PC war. However, I do have a lot of friends who are MAC users and the difference between a MAC user and a PC user is quite clear: MAC users swear "by" their computer while PC users swear "at" theirs.

@sla200x, that was a funny post... hehe
But to serious for a min, you are probably right about MAC users swearing by their stuff, but again, it is for the same reasons I mentioned. The platform, as with UNIX is more stable because there is not much variation in the hardware for software development to contend with.

If you have intel core duo mac, it is possible. search the forum. i can use VDj on mi imac without problems.

Well, seeing as you've bumped a year old thread you probably don't know that VDJ 4 is being ported to mac, so hopefully that will run without issues for you when its released. But is it being ported to PPC Mac or X86?

Maybe it will be universal app.

Seeing that its not released yet, i would imaging its either a universal app or intel code.
Apple isnt "producing" powerpc based systems.
