I quick google seems to indicate that Version 2 of the CD (OED2 CD-ROM) will run under Classic (i.e., under the old pre OS X Mac operating system which can be installed inside of Mac OS X - but it isn't installed by default.)

The newer Version 3 of the OED is Windows only. You could run it inside of Virtual PC on the Mac, but you'd still need to own a copy of Windows, so this isn't really "running it on the Mac".

HTH.

Helps. Means I can have the new OED without buying a new laptop; the irritation of having Virtual PC aside. Small price to pay for owning the operating system, word part at least, of the English speaking mind. Thanks.
