I love that the mac software is out!!! Overall it seems to be well done but there are a few things missing, I am assuming these are in development. Most importantly - Scoring Goals. As these effect the VAM of certain players, at times by several draft spots (or rounds) this is significant, any idea on when this will be incorporated. In addition no mock draft module on the mac program that I can see. The layout looks great, obviously similar but certainly mac feeling and more responsive, thanks for all the hard work on this guys!

The 2012 Version is compatible on any Mac running 10.5 OSX or above. Bascially any Macbook purchased in the last 4 years will be able to run the software.
This Mac version does not work on an iPad however.Currently the iPad doesn't have enough computing power to accomplish the calculations necessary to capture position scarcity and inflation during a draft (the OS for the PC and Mac does). We're hoping that future versions of the iPad will incorporate the same OS as the Macintosh OSX.

Anthony, I tried downloading from the Mac App store using iTunes gift cards I had redeemed. The balance is showing up in my account, but won't let me use it to purchase the app. Any ideas??

If you use a MAC mouse or finger pad, pressing on the Command or CTRL key and then clicking (mouse or pad) is equivalent to a right mouse click on a Windows type mouse).
Select any player from the player projections area or the Top VAM ranking and select him to a team.
Good luck with your draft!
