    Hi abbas_uddin,

    There's no plans currently for Desktop to be developed for the Mac. This Guy in a Cube video covers the current state, as well as ways to run Desktop on a Mac using options such as Parallels or turbo.net.

    They also mention that the intended roadmap is that the service (web) experience should incorporate most of the Desktop experience over time, but this is still not quite there yet, so hopefully the above options should be something you can look into.

    Good luck!
