Dan,
Unfortunately, Tc5 rooms from Talking Communities only sort of work on
the mac. Basically, they've developed a flash-based client for the
Mac which allows us to listen to the audio, text chat and view the web
pages. I've found the client to be very accessible, although not
having the ability to actually speak is unfortunate. Back when TC4
was the current version, they used technology developed by iVocalize
which offered a Java client for the Mac. That Java client worked very
well, it had it's issues but at least audio worked fine.
If you go to a room and do not see the option to launch the Mac, or
Flash client, write to the administrator of the room as he/she should
be able to enable the feature in their admin panel. I believe the
feature is just called Audio Streaming in the admin panel which
doesn't sound like what you'd want, but is.
HTH,
Steve

work at all on a mac? Don't want to have to use windows for that at
