Though I am not a programmer, it seems like this would be a great way to add some serious power to Shark, and would open up the research market that currently has nowhere to go for integrated Mac CAD/CAE. I tried to get Ashlar to investigate this several years back, but no luck. With the recent Mac push into the sciences, somebody need to make this happen! Maybe SpaceClaim (linked to ansys/algor) will go Mac soon to join it's iRhino partner?... Thanks ps: and I'm still hoping for the addition of T-Splines!

And pigs may fly? Seriously though, John Milne who is Spaceclaim's rep here in the United Kingdom is all for a SC Mac build, but like the rest of them (Autodesk, Dassault, et al), no one seems interested unless of course Apple claim at least 25% of market share (yes, greedy, I know. 20,000 seats isn't a lot of people/dosh to these guys :rolleyes: ).

The creative world is Mac dominated, and the sciences are slowly becoming Mac heavy. And I read that Macs are now the most popular computers on campus (who wouldn't want to grab them young and lock them into "your way"). Yes, Macs account for a small percentage of the total market (which includes dummy terminals at call centers, teens who care nothing for IP, and so on), but it is the most valuable part! -Satox ps: and NX 6 for Mac is vaporware...
