Airwire or RailPro

Jon, Thanks again for your input and for the RailPro users group forum info. I did sign up to the forum and found it very helpful. Definitely an asset to any RailPro user. There were three posts offering possibilities for getting around the Mac-Windows incompatibility issue but they seemed sketchy especially with my computer illiteracy. I had switched over to Mac from Windows based computers about 9 years ago after fighting with crashing hard drives and re-occuring virus issues. I haven’t had a single operational issue since with my Mac. And I really like their “partnership” with our iPad and Apple cell phones. However, I have had pretty much zero luck posting photos with it here on LSC and now with this RailPro incompatibility issue I may consider the acquisition of a simple Windows based PC for these purposes.

I had considered calling Don Sweet directly to question him about this Mac issue but thought I would address this here on LSC to be able to share the info. You were a great help. But Don Sweet, if you are reading this, please jump in…as you always helpfully do. You both are a great resource here.

Hi Mark, I know that Ring has a MAC version on his “to do” list…someday.

I bought a ACER Tablet PC running WIN 10. Super fast little guy. I use the RailPro USB simulator to demo the RailPro at shows, (remember going to shows). Bought it at Best Buy. They also have used laptops.

Also I just added two RailPro customers in Pittsburgh. They would like to meet others G scalers in the area.

Thanks Don. I will look into that Acer Tablet PC. It sure is nice to have you on speed dial here on LSC. That means a lot. I’ll be in touch, Mark
