What a pity that the opportunity for a Mac version was missed with the launch of Storyline 2. I tried Storyline 1 on my Mac, using Fusion, but it was hopeless; it took forever to open and to carry out other processes. It also slowed everything else on the machine to a crawl. Ended up going back to a PC and having to jump between both machines to do my work. So, come on Articulate and give us a Mac version of the program. It can't be that hard to do!
I use SL 2 with Parallels on my iMac and works fine. In fact I have both SL versions running and I have boosted my RAM to 16GB. But yes it would be nice to have a native version of SL for Mac
Same with me, Wendy. While I'd love to have a native Mac version — and based on an Articulate job offer for Mac devs I saw on Twitter, one may be in the works — it seems to run fine for me with Parallels, even on my 5 year old MacBook Pro. Biggest issues for me are the screen size and how long it takes to load. Once it's up and running it works pretty well.

Thanks folks. It looks like I got the wrong virtulization program! I'll plod on with the PC until the Mac version (hopefully) appears.
Hello Sean!
We have seen the request for a MAC version a good bit, but you can also add it as a feature request here.
Here is the information on using Parallels with MAC.
