Hi All,

I've had a response, but it doesn't fill me with confidence...

Dear Mr Noble,

We are pleased to see that you are the owner of Bang & Olufsen products. We are aware of the situation with the Mac compatible software. We are looking into this at the moment, but have not yet reached a conclusion. We expect to know more in a month time.

We regret the inconvenience this is causing you.

Kind regards

Bang & Olufsen a/s

Not too sure how this syncs with the reply above?

Best,

Rob

hello again,

it's from the same guy !  at least there's that ...

see the comments regarding B & O starting to fall behind?

case in point -

clear lack of vision

if you disagree, prove otherwise - but the entire world (even Microsoft) is trying to make their products work with Apple/itunes/etc - this would be a freebee for B&O.... and it would not even cost them that much..... such a shame

It has come to my notice that the development of BM-Link, the software allowing the integration of an Apple Mac system into a Masterlink B&O set up via Beoport has been lagging. This would appear to be due to the developer, Anders Odlund, having moved to California. He has no B&O products now as these remain in Sweden but has intimated that he still is interested in keeping the system up to date especially with the recent release of Snow Leopard.
Following discussions on Beoworld, we were wondering if it would be possible for B&O to either give or lend a system to Anders so that he can continue to update this software, something that can only be of benefit to B&O. A large number of Apple users are drawn to B&O and these are often high earners who are early adopters. Inability of their system to work with the latest software is likely to see a number simply change systems. We think this would be a shame and would request that the company consider our suggestion.
Best wishes,
Peter

What exactly does he need in order to move on the update?

He is in California but all his B&O stuff is in Sweden. He needs the loan (or gift!) of a Beoport and some B&O equipment - He can no doubt be more specific! I believe he is there working on something else unconnected to B&O.

But I believe he is there working for another brand that we like....
