Default new mac owner and question about castle link

It appears that in my limited experience with my new mac, that the Castle Creations, Castle Link software will not run on my mac? I believe the only place i have read anything aobut running it on a mac says to boot the mac to windows? Is this correct? Should i keep an old windows machine just to use my CC link software?

Again, keep in mind i'm new to the mac, only had it 4 days. Still trying to learn how to install software on it.

Yes.

Mac is not a Windows machine unless you install Boot Camp and Windows on the Mac. If you have an old Windows machine, keep it for nothing more than the Castle Link software, and I guess the Tekin software if you ever go the Tekin route, with their Hotwire.

I agree that you need windows but that is the cool thing about your new mac, you can run windows on it too.

Boot Camp, like I mentioned above.

Or the other one, Parallels.
