I have installed a Thundermax ECM on my Street Glide. It works great but I want to fiddle around with the software a bit. Unfortunately, I only have Macs and the software seems to be compatible with Windows.
What are you running the software on? Can I get away with just getting a Windows Tablet or do I have to get an actual PC? Trying to figure out the cheapest way to open this software.
Probably easiest to get a refurbished PC. Best Buy has new ones for $230 that would probably work. You could also look for used computer stores in your neighborhood and pick up a used one for even less. Just make certain its specs exceed the minimum required for your software. This is help it keep from being obsolete too soon.
Thanks for the replies! I am thinking I will look around for a cheap pc.
I only ever owned Macs, but wanted something a bit more portable that can stay in my bag at TSA checkpoints.
I bought the Surface Pro 3, small drive because it suits me for travel. The Surface Pro 2 is still a great deal and probably quite sufficient for what you would need.
You could do everything with or without a keyboard and mouse - touch screen.
I am not a big Windoze fan, but they got pretty close to mark with these machines.
