    The first one that I purchased had to be returned because it was not working. The exchange was done at Best Buy and the second one does a great job.

    I bought this because it said it was MAC compatible. I installed the software and found I had to install more software to make it work with a MAC. After installing the software it still would not work. When I googled the issue it said it only worked with newer macs. It should said that on the sight.
