Peter, The web address of the company is:
http://www.goldenhawk.com/ Unfortunately, it looks like the company is only producing products for the Dos and Windows operating systems. But I wonder if you have looked at any of the newsgroups, as well as doing searches in Google and similar, for Mac software, since I think I remember over the years of seeing similar products being advertised for Mac users. Since the Mac has never had the same kind of issues as MS/PC Dos and Windows/OS2 users have had to deal with, though the issues are different and there none the less, such as problems running Mac software when a new version of the OS was released (though that one seems almost a universal problem no matter what system or OS you are using/running), you probably should have NO problems, I would think, of finding recording software for the Mac without much of any problem. One thing I personally dont understand goes back to the very start of the whole issue of CD-Rom manufacture with regard to Intel versus Motorola based systems (Dos/Win/OS2 versus Mac for the simpliest case) - the location for the directory info between the 2 is quite different it would seem. So manufacturers of software for both type of systems, if the CD has the software for both type of computers, have to encode the directory and related info on 2 different tracks on the CD itself. So a Dos/Windows based system would look automatically at one track for directory info while a Mac based system would look automatically at another track for directory info. Was this setup as a standard in the early days to differenciate between the data between the 2 OSs, or something else??? Also, I am wondering WHAT does someone do if they want to produce a CD that can be read by BOTH OSs - what kind of software does the person/company use to product CDs used on both a Dos/Win based system and also for a Mac based system??? Ralph Ralph, does this utility also produce Mac formatted cd's?
