Any word on compatibility of JBidwatcher with OSX Lion?

While I’m not upgrading to Lion just yet, I do hope that JBidwatcher will have a version that runs under Lion available before too long (so I don’t lose this great tool for auctions).

Greetings,
I’m running Lion on my laptop, and JBidwatcher seems to run just fine.

The first run required a download of the Java Runtime, but that appeared automatic, which was a nice touch.

After that installed, it launched flawlessly… Give it a try, and let me know if it works as well for you!

Just installed Lion yesterday, and as Morgan just said, on first run JBidwatcher automatically ‘grabbed’ a Java download, and now it’s working perfectly!

nice to know.Tthanks for the feedback, I will get some of my machine running Lion soon, but I still have programs (including one of my favorite game) that will not run on Lion, but only on up to Snow Leopard :(

Thanks for filling us in, Morgan. Great to hear that JBidwatcher has a continuing spot on my Dock. Even better that it recognizes the need to download the Java RTime, as I’d seen (somewhere) a post that had me wondering what Java version would work under 10.7.
