Q: DD for Mac?
A: no

Bummer. They really don't get it do they. Mac is the premier OS on a PC. Lego
is the premier building toy set. They should be desirous of having Mac support.


Not to get into an OS war, but Lego's frequently said they tailor towards the
large market group (which is why so few of the AFOL demands get incorporated).
The Mac market probably just isn't big enough for them to justify the
development costs. It's what, 5% of total PC sales?  It's not that they don't
"get it", it's that for them it doesn't make good business sense.
