Install APEX 4.0 on Apple Mac

527036Jul 28 2010 — edited Sep 10 2010
Hi,

Can someone please let me know if it's possible to use an Apple Mac Mini as a dedicated Oracle Apex Server?

I'm just looking for the simplest way to install Apex on a Mac Mini

I would ideally like to use OSX operating system but failing that I would be prepared to dual boot the Mac Mini with Windows and install Apex on that.

Anyway, the OTN website states the following:
Note: Oracle Application Express 4.0 is supported on all Editions (SE1, SE, EE, and XE)
of the Oracle database, 10.2.0.3 or higher. Application Express 4.0 can also be used
with Oracle Database 10g Express Edition. We specifically support the following platforms:
- Mac OS X Server
This seems good news. The thing I do not understand is can I install Oracle SE or EE on OSX? I do not believe XE is available on OSX.

Would I need OSX Server or would OSX Leopard be enough?

Sorry for all the questions hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.
