[GreenKeys] Heavy Metal on Mac?

Hi everyone,

I¹m still trying to see what the best approach will be to drive my future
M28 (none found yet in the Northeast) from Heavy Metal. I first thought that
setting it up under Linux would be best as I have an Asterisk PBX running
under it at the moment.  But under further examination I realized that it
would add unnecessary steps to have to walk over to the Linux box to start
the HM feed.  Why not use my Mac?  So I have two options.  One would be to
see if HM runs under MacOSX, or if all else fails, run HM on my Windows 7
Virtual Machine (on the Mac) and find a USB to Serial adapter to support the
HM / RS-232 feed.  Assuming that there is no Mac version, has anyone had
good luck with a USB-to-Serial converter with HM?  Is so, what make/model
has worked?

Many thanks
Lee
