why can't we all just get along?

i thought that i would just install photoshop elements 6 onto my macbook and start editing pictures this evening. unfortunately i failed to notice that the version i have is only for windows xp and vista. whiskey. tango. foxtrot. i will be the first to admit that i am not a computer genius - not even close - but last time i checked out a piece of software it listed windows and mac compatibility. all right, that was probably back in the mid to late 199os. other than world domination, is there a reason why pcs and macs can't get along and share software like nice little kiddos? does anyone out in the blogosphere know a wormhole to help me out here? lame-core. i still love my little macbook.
