RE: Apples / osX

Hi Jackson,

Thus far I've managed to get netcat and a few other Unix compatible tools to
work simply by going into the OSX utilities and running a Terminal session.
More than just a unix base, you can just open a BASH shell right from the
utils and run the apps from there. 

Hope that helps,

Corey Watts-Jones

Hey all,

Wondering if anyone has / does use a Mac for there "toolkit" laptop?
With osX being UNIX "based" and from what I can see some of the more
popular stuff should port with a little work.

Before I went and spent couple of K on a new power book I was wondering
if anyone had already tried?  What setbacks? What works well?  What
software have you found?

Any ideas / insight would be great :)

Cheers

Jack.
