    TheSkyX (for Mac)

    Hi. I am interested in purchasing The Sky software, but it seems, as a Mac user, that I am currently limited to TheSkyX. At some point I would like to use it to aim my tracking mount.

    Will you be enhancing the product to compete with your previous versions (TheSky6 professional), and will you provide an upgrade path?

    Will I be able to drive a mount that I built? I am a very capable Mac OS software developer, but does your software provide an interface?

    Is there a download option, or must I buy it and wait for media to arrive?

    Thank you.

    What prococol and interface does the control system use? If you stick to a known protocol, then support is simpler.

    That's the plan.

    Currently, there's no download option for TheSkyX Student Edition.

    In the near future, there will be an option to access all SB products (even the 3 GB TheSkyX Pro, when available) via download.
