I have a PC myself, but I do know that Better Homes and Gardens' "Complete
Guide to Gardening" is compatible for PCs and Macs. I will have to check on
"Gardening Encyclopedia". Many of the CDs on the market today are
compatible for both PCs and Macs. I know the newest version of "Garden
Encyclopedia" requires:
486 or higher PC, Windows 3.1 or Windows 95, 4 MB RAM, 2 MB hard disk space,
and VGA graphics. My "Complete Guide to Gardening" is older, so the
requirements are problably lower as well.
