Tournament Management Software for Macs?

Anybody know of a good home tournament management program for Macs?

I have been checking out the Poker Tournament Hero demo. Seems decent enough but before I pay ($30) to register it, I want to see if there is anything else cheaper or better available.

Go to homepokertourney.com and check out there detailed section. I use Tournament Director and it is a great program that is free unless you want all of the bells and whistles.

I think it is doubtful that Tournament director will work on macs. If it does, It's great. Check with the author though. Even though it is browser-based around Internet Explorer, it's one of those .hta applications. I dunno if those work on macs (I doubt it. I bet there are enough differences with IE on Mac vs. IE on PC).

I went to the Tournament Director web site, the only download option is .exe file and there was no mention of Mac compatibility, which I think they would be advertising if it was a cross platform app.

Any other suggestions for Macs or opinions of Poker Tourmament Hero?

Tournament Manager is a Java app, works on PC, Mac, Linux.

It was rated highly by the Home Poker Tourney web site. Check it here

Yeah, i'm an idiot. I meant to say Tournament manager is a system that I use on my Mac not Tournament Director. I really like it. We used it for our last tourney. I still have no idea how to use all of the features in the program, but I do think it is a great utility.
