Q: Can I run ProMax Unlimited on a Mac?
A: ProMax Mobile offers much of ProMax Unlimited’s functionality and can be used on a Mac (in addition to any other desktop, tablet, or smartphone).

These solutions require a licensed version of Windows to run. In theory, ProMax Unlimited should be able to run under a Windows install on a Mac.
