[TenTec] Macintosh OS X control with Orion

I would like to interface an OS X Mac with my Orion. Specifically I'd  
like to use something like MacLoggerDX, and I'd also like for someone  
to recommend a PSK package as well. A few questions:

1) Are there other Orion-using Mac users on the list who interface  
the two successfully?
2) Is there a specific PSK program worth using? A Google search left  
me somewhat confused -- it looks like the best waterfall software is  
PC-based.
3) Years ago, Heathkit offered a standalone keyboard that generated  
Morse. I realize that's a wimp's way out, hi, but is there a keyboard  
based software CW package for Mac OS X that can key the Orion?  
MacLoggerDX seems to offer such a function, but I wonder how usable  
that minor feature is.

Thanks for any advice.
