    No problem.

    You only have to download and install the FTDI drivers for the USB to serial adapter on the Board of Education.
    You can get them here: www.ftdichip.com/Drivers/VCP.htm.

    Once these are installed, you can use MacBS2 to edit, compile, and download your programs to the Stamp.
    You may get a warning about using the newer FTDI drivers, but I suggest you ignore the warning. They seem to work fine.
    You can get MacBS2 here: www.muratnkonar.com/otherstuff/macbs2/index.shtml.
