Good morning;
Eventually, we have decided to move from carefully handcrafted analyses of
qualitative data to machine-assisted analysis. Following 'expert' advice,
we looked into QR-NUD*IST, since it claimed to run on the Macintosh (an
important constraint for any alternative). It turns out that there are
problems if you try to run it on Mac Operating System 8.5.1, and the
supplier's single semi-useful suggestion is that we go back to OS 7.5, and
run it on that. Great idea.
Given the hidden message in this response, we are looking for any
alternative application that will run on Mac OS 8.5. Any suggestions very
welcome - especially if you could name the supplier as well.
The immediate use would be for analysing semi-structured interview data
from stakeholders using CAE toolsets supplied by several suppliers.
Thanks
Murray
