I have a macbook pro and decided to install windows. still waiting on the cable. I don't see why the cable would not work. If you have a AEM UEGO to read AFR you will need USB-RS232 converter to make it working with you laptop since it doesn't have the RS232 port.

i dumped OSX because it was a nonstop disaster. Crashing on me at least once every 3 hours. (macbook replaced by apple 3 times). Runing windows 7 with no issues now.

Evoscan and ecu flash work great in windows 7

I'm running Windows on my macbook (2.0 core 2 duo) through bootcamp and can log through Evoscan and tune through Ecuflash perfectly fine, I've had NO problems whatsoever running XP SP2 through bootcamp and tuning/logging on my macbook.
