Parallels tech support is free for only 20 or 30 days. I needed tech support from Parallels to configure Windows, and they were very good.

I installed Parallels Desktop for MacPro computers and Windows 7 to utilize Delorme's Topo-NA software. I returned the Spot device and replaced it with DeLorme's "In Reach" device which does allow texting, but is even better as the texting can be two way. As I came to find out, the Spot device for DeLorme got pulled off the market as it was found to be defective and is no longer available. I use it for those rare instances when there is not a good Mac software option.Īfter ordering the DeLorme PN-60w and Spot device, it turned out I got the Spot device for smart phones, and not the one for the PN60! It was frustrating because the two Spot devices look almost identical.

The basic user interfaces are much the same in both handheld models, but similarities are few otherwise. The good news is the extra bills are worth it as I finally resigned myself to learning this later technology, and I'm impressed enough to share it in a post for us suffering Mac users (please, someone explain the stupidity) who may be stuck with outdated topographical software. FINALLY upgraded this year, got a Garmin 60Cx, and due to Garmin's propensity to be PC only (ridiculous, in-package software Mac incompatible), I was forced to spend another bunch of bills on Garmin's PC/Mac "BaseCamp". Had to manually enter waypoints due to lack of Mac support with the geko 201.
