Hello, I'm a software developer.. I'm looking for a guy thats running OSX and willing to install/test software for me then I can make a OSX build of it.

Thanks a lot! :-)

Ive got 3 systems running OSX (Macpro, iMac, Macbook Pro) If the program is remotely interesting to me I dont mind spending some time installing and testing it. Let me know what it is and what you would want me to try out and ill be happy to help.

Sounds rather dubious... :eek:

Indeed

I was thinking it's a bit strange.. An unknown person wants to run an unknown piece of software on your machine.. lemme see - not a cat in hells chance.
Sorry - even if their intentions were good.. last thing I want is a key logger on my system..

Well its python so you can read the source code.. its a scripting language... (Assuming you know some simple programming!)

and OSX comes with python.. just wanted a way to see the screen so I can see what the gui is like.. (its a gui app!) Maybe il just tell them to take screenshots or get output of commands? more long winded but up to you!

Edit: + will add you lot to msn

tnx soz i didnt reply sooner

Edit2: I appriciate if you know anything at all about creating a .dmg! but I will research a bit. Just trying to support the mac community instead of ignoring them.

BSc Software Engineering + over 10 years in a large software house. Perhaps that's why I'm more paranoid about security etc!
