Does lowrance have a software option for Mac computers that would work with my H20?
I have Mapcreate 6 and this does not work with my new computer. I am somewhat dissapointed but the benefits of the new computer outweight this minor detail. Just wondering though if there is something out there yet for us Mac people?

I don't have the lowrance, etc. But I have a Mac. I found a site that talks about building maps h20, etc.

If your Mac is new and intel based, you can always run windows and be OK. The thing about file systems and files on computers is that if you can get the file on the machine (Mac) and use a unix command or STD app like vi to look and save, you can probably do whatever you want. I do that all of the time with other applications for work. Lots of files and functionality are simple when you look at it and then it is easy to transfer.
