Hey all, I have 2 questions I would like to ask the group ...

1. I understand that LCDProc is said to run on Darwin now, does that  
include OS X (Tiger) specifically? Are there any differences I should  
make note of before investing in hardware? Like, are some parts of  
LCDProc's featureset unavailable?

2. Ideally, I'm looking for a USB blue-tinted backlit LCD, sort of  
like the Crystalfontz "CFA634-TMC-KU" (20x4) that's as conflict free  
with OS X as possible. Is anyone running OS X with LCDProc that could  
recommend their solution?

Please do pardon my inexperience, I've been monitoring the group for  
well over a year now (in between other hobbies) and have gotten the  
feeling LCDProc might just be functional on OS X now. Thanks for  
letting me ask :)
