I think there's a program called Wine for Macs that allows Windows programs to run.

edit: Check this out.

Wine doesn't work with more complex programs, that utilizes USB drivers. Or at least that's my experience. I have a small netbook for programming my Mamba monster and xcelorin ESC's.

You'll need to either install windows via bootcamp, or install it on a virtual machine. VirtualBox, Parallels Desktop and VMware Fusion are the ones I can remember at the top of my head.

Bootcamp is really the best way.

My CastleLink works well with VMWare Fusion. Both my XP and Windows7 VMs run the app just fine. I have an old netbook running XP - it's slow compared to my VMs but saves me from taking my macbook pro out if I need to make adjustments @ the track.
