No worries.    I'm getting an error code each time I try to purchase - error code 127?    Happened both times I tried...

Thank you for your reply.  Don't take offense to having multiple people ask about the same thing - it just confirms you've created something good.

Heading to purchase my Platinum license now.  Guess I'll finally break down and put Windows 7 on my MBP.

Thanks for calling my questions excellent    ...that's reassuring as I was worried it might be ground already well covered somewhere and my search strings (and patience) just wasn't sufficient.

I will send this to support and see if they respond.  It's a little disappointing, and a lot short sighted, to find that the devs don't monitor this forum periodically.  I would think that a useful activity for them.

NovaMind 5 for Mac / Presenter - Estimated Arrival... and other questions

I really really want to buy this software - but I can't fork out $80 if it doesn't have the ability to gracefully integrate with Power Point.  I don't want to spend $250 for MindJet - but that may be what's necessary.  Can the devs offer an idea of when this will be ready?

From skimming around here - I see that the Windows version has this capability - and I came across another thread that said the purchased license is valid for either OS version.  What I'm wondering is - can I install VMWare Fusion - run Win 7 and the Windows version solely to integrate with PP.  What I'd have to do - as a work around - would be Create MM in Mac version - save - open in Win virtual machine - export file to .ppt - (not quite sure of that process yet) - then head back to OS X to test - since I only have Office 2011 for Mac - I don't have a Windows version nor do I care to buy one. 

Yes - I can export to a picture file - but that's not sufficient.  I want to walk people through the logic/thought process - which means I want to animate the revealing of additional topics, subtopics, etc.

Also - Does - Novamind support text boxes - or other arrows external to core MM that can be used to show commonality or additional relationships?
