Also (and I realize this is nit picky) you should change the section heading to "Mac" or "OS X".

"Macintosh" as a term to refer to a computer doesn't exist now. I can't find a link to support it, but I'm pretty certain Apple officially uses Mac, not Macintosh, even though the former was originally a shortened version of the latter.

p.s. Thanks for this software. Awesome to have choice in this area.

Omg, really? REALLY? Even though I'm not a "Mac" guy, this actually makes me kind of sad inside. I remember when my elementary school moved from a fleet of Apple II computers to the new amazing Macintosh. I always liked saying it too. Mac-in-tosh. A nice name for a computer. Alas alas alas.
