Same for me. I have an old (OLD!) Olympus digi camera--actually the third one of
the same model, after losing or breaking the first two(!)--and, although its
software does work on my (equally older) Mac, it's just far easier to insert
the (old and outdated!) memory card into my Windows XP box's multi-card-reader
to download the photos. I haven't actually used the Olympus software in years.

Yeah, *someday* I'll get a NEW camera (but my old clunker is *really* cheap on
e-bay, if I have to replace it yet again...)
