Since I'm PC-free these days, I was wondering if anybody knows of a source for ETK compatible with OSX? My old PC laptop is in baaad shape and currently resides in my garage right next to the trash bin (for good reason). The fact that the online world is so fragile, I figured it would be a good idea to have my own parts manual resource.
I know that there are some downloadable pdf manuals online, but I'm looking for something like an actual DVD disc with full input, index, etc...
:help
Cheers

Welcome to the boring world of OSX :-) MAC is so boring that it never breaks :-)
As for the ETK is unfortunate but nothing fior the OSX... I have to run Parallels with winblows to run all my PC apps that I need... Sucks I know.....

Beyond the PDF manuals are the ETK parts list and the TIS service information and both are windows based. Both are available on ebay or if you have some one with them close to you. I think you will have to run them in a virtual windows mode though.
I am not an Apple person though so someone should be along in a bit to give you the straight scoop.

Hmm.. can't run a Windows emulator on that Mac? Almost a necessary evil these days...

If you get it sorted Koiz I have the full TIS and the ETK complete with price lists up through 2007. It's on an ISO DVD image so downloadable, or I can point you to a torrent if you're familiar with that process.
