    Hi

    We've a Driver Theory Test coming up in the family very shortly - but we have no PC available to us as we only have Macs; and we don't know anyone with a PC we could access/borrow. Does anyone know if they allow you use the CD in a library? or if the DTT is online? as they don't have a Mac version.

    Grateful for any advise or help!

    Thanks
    JC




    I did do a search but couldn't find anything recent since the new DTT, and old links didn't work....

    Really don't know anyone else with a pc? thats mad :P

    My local library allows CD's but you have to ask them before hand, They have the driver theory test CD there already so maybe yours will too.

    No Mac Version? Disgraceful!

    You could install Ubuntu and run it under Wine perhaps

    Thanks for your very fast answers! Knew I'd get a bit of a slagging. I'm not a computer nerd by any means, so "Ubuntu under Wine" ???? Anyway, I'll* try Google to find out how, and seriously and sincerely thanks!


    *on second thoughts, I'll get the youngster onto this......


    (But really I wonder is this a bit of a money spinner for them? Not to put the DTT online?)

    Look for a Windows emulator for Mac.

    I did a quick google and got CrossOver, never heard of it or used it as I've always been a PC person. Do some checking to see if it's legit or if there are better options
