Seeking Information/Opinions on Software

[matthewsheffield]

Hello All,

I am a first time poster to the forum but a long time browser. I'd like to say thanks to everyone who contributes. This forums has helped me solve most all of the problems I have ever encountered with my weather station hardware and software with a simple search.

I have tried most of the software that is available currently for weather stations but have yet to find a solution that meets all of my requirements. Perhaps I am too picky but I don't think that is always a bad thing.

The main frustration I am experiencing is the lack of Mac software on the market. As a result I am considering writing a new Mac weather station application. I have created a survey using a Google Docs form and would greatly appreciate any and all input I can get on it. I am looking for input from Mac, PC, and Linux users. My main goal with the survey is to get a feel for what features are most important and where everyone feels that work needs to be done to create a better software solution.

I second that question...

What specifically can't you do with what is already out there for Mac?  Admittedly, there are far fewer Mac software packages than on PC, but you only need ONE if it does everything you need it to do.
