Are there any Estimate type programs out there for Macs? I really like Estimate, but would like to see something like that for the Mac. Any out there?

Many people use EstiMate on their Macs and run it through Virtual PC, or a few other adaptive programs. It's a little slower to run that way, but works just fine, you might want to go to the user discussion group on the website (www.estimatesoftware.com) and ask about it. Mark knows more about this, but he is moving his offices this weekend and everything is turned off for the move.

Hey John,
Thanks to Mark, I just happen to have a copy of EstiMate here for a door prize next week. You just may be the lucky one to walk away with it. Then you could figger out a way to make it work on yer Mac.

Yep, it can be tough finding software for a Mac. Haven't heard of any off hand.

Ive never had problems finding anything yet Todd. I have everything I need so far, just thought there might be a program like estimate for the mac os. I think Ill wait for someone to come up with one. Dont wanta put anything windows based on my mac yet. Might teach it bad things.

Hey John,
Does that mean that if you win the EstiMate program I can just keep it? You can bet I'd be more than happy to load it on my PC for ya.

Been using EstiMate through Virtual PC for years now. Slow, cumbersome but once running, it is really good! Better than digging through the truck for a calculator, pencil, book etc...
