Not something I’m willing to spend seventy bucks on. It also took forever to import my database (20k individuals), which doesn’t exactly make me confident in its ability to handle large databases. But it follows a philosophy of “make everything available in a single window”, which I found a bit overwhelming. Heredis is a bit better-it at least looks like a Mac application.And the list of children, there at the bottom? What’s with the bizarre diagonal layout? It’s like they couldn’t decide on a color schema and so went for as many pastels as they could find. I’m sure there are plenty of ugly Mac programs, but I can’t believe people would pay $100 for something this hideous. Reunion by Leister Productions appears to be the suite of choice for most Mac-using genealogy enthusiasts.But I have been less than impressed what what I’ve seen. There are actually quite a few applications for the Mac, and a few of them are even free. I say unfortunately, because I have looked and looked for a decent genealogical program for OSX and am frankly astounded by the lack. Unfortunately, this renewal of interest coincides with my adoption of Mac OS X. About 4 or 5 years ago I did quite a bit of work on my genealogy, but what with kids (and Ruby!) I’ve only recently rediscovered that passion. I’ve recently been experiencing a renewal of interest in family history research.
