Any updates on when Mac support will be available?
Doubtful, we all know how slow Ring is, although he does say (forgotten where) that his software is written to be cross platform compatible. If that's the case then it should really be as simple as compiling for Mac.
We Mac users aren't complete leapers anymore. Time for Ring to join the 21st century.
I feel for you, it doesn't run on Linux either.
At the moment and for a long time to come it seems there's only two options, a separate Windows PC/Laptop or a virtual machine on the Mac.
It is possible to do the virtual machine way for free, both Virtual Box
and VM Ware Player (Edit: VM Ware is not free on Mac) are free virtualisation environments and you can actually get official free copies of Windows. The caveat being that the free copies are time limited (they are after all, for evaluation) but you can use them after the expiry time, but they'll complain about not being activated and after some amount of time each time you use it it'll force shutdown on you.
I've been keeping an eye on a free from-the-ground-up windows clone but last time I ran an experiment the RP software wouldn't load. I don't know what they did but the version previous to the latest release the RP software loaded but the OS couldn't see the HC / CI-1.
