Thought I'd throw my workaround for Mac/Storyline into the mix.
My son-in-law brought me an old PC - HP with CORE i3 - that works great. He found it in a recycling bin. Seriously, you don't need much of a PC to run Storyline.
I then invested 180.00 (CA) for Windows 10 and 120.00 for MS Office 360. Finally I bought a Wormhole by J5Create for 30 bux - a double sided USB connector - that connects my Mac to my PC so I can access both machines and all their files via shared keyboard/mouse and monitors.
With this set-up I can create in Storyline and easily bring in course assets created on my Mac without sullying it with MS or dealing with Bootcamp or other virtual machine options. Plus I now have a backup machine just in case my Mac goes down (knocking on wood that that never happens!) I'm not worried about the PC as I know I can replace it for free or at least very cheaply. The Mac, whole 'nother story.
Having said that - I can't wait for Storyline for Mac, which I'm confident will come eventually.
