[Diabetes-talk] Something Cool

Hi Mike, Joseph and anyone interested about MyMeterLink and the Mackintosh:

I received my message from Chris Gwaltney who mike had suggested writing to
so you may have gotten this message if you wrote him. Chris said the system
has been designed to work with the Windows Operating System but not with a
Mackintosh based system. What you would be able to do is upload your meter's
results using a Windows PC or Laptop but not your Mackintosh. You would be
able to access each of the web page options from your Mac computer once you
have been able to load your tests.
Chris did mention that they are planning to have the Mackintosh access
available in the future but there is no estimation as to a date.
