“i think, i think i think, that the embroidery digitization software i…”
I have no knowledge of embroidery, programs or otherwise, but if it comes to pass that you have to bootcamp your computer into accepting Windows as an operating system, I’ve done that before and can offer advice if your dude hits a wall. As for 3-4 word phrases… “nevertheless she persisted” comes to mind, though that might be a little long. It’d be super metal on red-stained denim though.
Dude has actually had to run Parallels on his Mac for years– it’s only very recently he finally switched his primary work box to Linux, because he was tired of doing that and it took forever. So he’s pretty confident he can get me up and running if he absolutely must. But I think I’m really going to try to get something that runs native on OSX because I’m awful about closing programs and i know leaving that running would be resource-intensive.
I like that as a phrase. I’ve just about exhausted my one and two-word phrases and single-color built-in patterns, so I think I’ll try some other stuff soon. I’ll put it on the list. :)

I really like embird and SewArt for machine embroidery
I looked at SewArt, that was the one everyone recommends, but it doesn’t run native in OSX. I think I saw Embird but I had fifty tabs open and lost track of things. Looking at their website, they only mention Windows 10, so I doubt they’ve got Mac support either.
It’s funny, it’s such a very very long time since I had to think about programs being compatible cross-platform– it feels like a very, very 2004 problem, but maybe that’s just the last time I really thought about it…
