MacGuy, I'm using it on a Macbook. I assume it would work on any OS X platform, but I haven't verified that.

Works with all Macs running MacOS X and well as Windoze (it may be Vista--not sure).

But this one, I agree with!

Maybe they'll come up with something as advanced as VIPS email.

The problem is that this company is really cheap in allocating monies for data processing, especially when they don't perceive it to be of value to "them." As an example, we've never been allowed to do a mid-trip trip trade, and the reason has always been that "the computer" can't handle the calculations. UPS has been allowing mid-trip trades since 1989, when I worked there. It's a shame, because they would allow a guy who has just finished a weekend layover, and about to operate the jet back to base, to be replaced by a qualified pilot who is jumpseating on that jet, to base, to pick up an outbound trip.

I'm pretty sure I used the "Vacation Seive" under the Advanced Menu, and I think it worked pretty well. (Bid-X)
