mac compatible?

[Andy]

I want to buy the visio software but as I need to work in
the office with an apple computer, I need to know if visio
is mac compatible?

does it support layers like certain other business drwaing
sofware like conceptdraw?

does it allow the creation of business charts (population
pyramid) which are connected to an execl chart for data?

Thanx in advance
Andy

I haven't found out if there's a version of Visio for the mac, but check out
this link regarding mac compatibility and ConceptDraw:

Regarding your other questions, I know that Visio 2003 fully supports layers
and believe 2002 may as well. In addition, it is a full-fledged diagramming
tool and interoperates completely with other Office apps, including Excel.
