CareLink Software and Mac Compatibility. Or lack thereof.
I was frustrated enough, but then I got some information from the CDE I've been working with at Minimed. Apparently I'm supposed to download Bootcamp, and then buy the latest version of Windows so that I can use CareLink on either my work or home computer. Not cheap.
Anyone have any other ideas?

Another idea: See if your local library, or someone at work, has a PC that still has Windows XP. Load your MM CD-Rom and insert your Carelink gizmo into the USB port on THAT computer.

I'm not sure why the lack of support for Mac OS X? I've installed VMWare and XP, just for CareLink! I wouldn't mind so much, costs of VMWare and X, but! it clobbers nearly 2Gig of my hard drive!
I do now know id Medtronic realise (maybe that have a large market place anyway) the amount of business they would attract, simply by writing a Mac OS X driver for their USB wireless device!!!
Come-on!!!
