Nah, 100% Apple since Chen writes his own drivers and his own software
and it always will work or no doubt he will make it work. No RF
problems, no windows drivers issues and no third party driver which is
actually the problem in this case. Layers on layers on layers.
My Mac works mighty fine.

I agree the WIN 8 system is very different from WIN 7 but there are very few
Ham Radio Programs available on Apple. I think, for the ham and his wife,
Win 8 is the way to go.

Is not going to be quick. There are too many bugs in the OEM versions of
Windows 8. I've shelved *any* plans to update my personal systems so will
not have a Windows 8 platform at all.

The wife is getting a win 8 tablet for Christmas and I want to be on
the same windows platform. I sure hope Microham can get their
software up and running on WIN 8, ASAP.

All interfaces require a driver of some kind and Windows 8 (or some of
the OEM versions of Windows 8) has broken several of the hardware drivers.
Windows 8 is the new "Vista" and will have corporations scrambling to
retain Windows 7.

You also need to make sure that any commercial thing you get is
certified for Windows 8 as there are reports out that some don't
work with Windows 8.
In fact, you need to *avoid Windows 8*. Windows 8 offers no
benefits for the typical desk/laptop user, has a completely
confusing interface and breaks a lot of hardware.

Yet another reason to avoid commercial interfaces that require a driver.
