LabVIEW 8.2 provides some support for Macintosh computers with Intel processors.
LabVIEW 8.2 for Mac OS is built as a Universal binary and therefore can run natively on both a PowerPC and an Intel Macintosh. The PowerPC was officially supported by National Instruments during the release of LabVIEW 8.2, while the Intel Mac version of LabVIEW was being released as a pioneer release, meaning that it was not extensively tested and National Instruments provided only minimal technical support. However, the Intel Mac version of LabVIEW 8.2 has passed most validation tests. This release of LabVIEW was intended for early adopters of the Mac/Intel machines to try out their applications and provide feedback or report any problems to National Instruments. You should not make any assumptions about support of LabVIEW 8.2 on Mac/Intel unless such support is officially announced in a future release. Please see KnowledgeBase 4PIG5AG0: LabVIEW Version Compatibility with Mac OS PPC and x86 Processors for more information.
The following are known issues you might encounter with LabVIEW 8.2:
