mIRC on Apple Macs
Sorry but mIRC only runs on the Windows operating system, so it will not work on the
Apple Mac. There are no plans to make an Apple Mac version of mIRC at this time.
However, there are a number of IRC clients for the Apple Mac that you can try out,
that work very much like mIRC, such as
Ircle,
Snak,
Colloquy, or
Babbel.
All of these IRC clients can be used to connect to the same IRC networks as with
mIRC, so you will see all of your friends on all of the same channels.
Alternatively, if you really want to use mIRC on the Apple Mac, there are a number
of "virtualization" products for Apple Mac computers that allow you to
run
Windows applications on a Mac. Or you can simply install a version of Windows
using Apple Mac's Bootcamp
feature and run all of your favorite Windows applications that way.
mIRC on Linux
Sorry but mIRC only runs on the Windows operating system, so it will not work on
Linux. There are no plans to make a version of mIRC that will work on Linux at
this time.
Linux has quite a few native IRC clients, although none of them are quite like
mIRC.
If you really want to run mIRC on Linux, it is possible to do so using Wine,
which is an Open Source implementation of Windows for Linux. You can find out
more about Wine at http://www.winehq.com.
Recent versions of mIRC run quite well under Wine.
mIRC on Handhelds and Mobiles
Sorry but mIRC only runs on the Windows operating system, so it will not work on
your handheld or mobile. There are no plans to make a version of mIRC that will
work on handhelds or mobiles at this time.
There are quite a few IRC clients written specifically for handhelds and mobiles,
so it is very likely that you can find one for your particular device.
