## Questions & Answers

**Q: I heard certain CAC readers no longer work nowadays. Does this one still work?**
A: It works flawlessly with Win7, 8, and 8.1.  I am big fan of these, because they are recognized on every OS the moment you insert them, foldaway nicely, and can be attached to key rings.  Really well designed and durable.

**Q: Just to clarify, this can be used with a Mac desktop computer and for military IDs?**
A: NO! It's for CAC Cards but stinks with Macs. This even has a hard time with some PC's. I'm sure if you know a lot of computer stuff you could get it goin on Mac but it's not a simple plug-n-play

**Q: Does it come with the software in the USB or do I have to download something off the internet?**
A: It does not come with software, but you can easily download software from your CAC provider or off the internet for FREE. Not $35 per the other answer.

**Q: Is this made in China?**
A: The units we sell are made in South Korea.
