Re: Is OSX (mac) FRC Friendly?
There is no native support for LabView on Mac OS X yet. You can use a Mac running Windows 7 (or 8 although I wouldn't recommend it yet) through BootCamp or Parallels/VMWare (I would not trust a VM in competition). Macs are very elegant, durable machines and will work great as driver station computers when in BootCamp.

Edit: My personal Mac was often used as an emergency back up programming laptop at regionals. Thankfully I never needed to use it, but through BootCamp I could do whatever needed to be done
