Any plans to do a Mac version of Comfigurator?
The Mac is no longer an esoteric platform and Comfigurator has been around long enough to be stable so this seems like a logical step.
If it made life simpler a version which could only communicate via Ethernet and not USB would be acceptable.

Sorry but it is just too costly to support 2 versions, on Mac and Windows, with frequent updates etc

If it was written in Java this would not be necessary, but if as I suspect it is actually written using .Net then you could look at using Mono to make it portable to both Mac and Linux.
See the following

I use Parallels. A bit cumbersome but it works.
