Sorry I don't know of anything. I know there was a Ross-tech program that was suppose to work on the MINI. Maybe a search on NAM might provide an answer. Anyone remember the ross-tech program/link?

I have a buddy that uses a Mac with VM Ware to run the Rackpak software for his G2X. I've never searched for Mac specific logging software but with VM Ware you can certainly have a lot more options.

A Mac running OS X? If so, you might be able to get one of the Linux based tools to run. One of these even shows suppot for Macs, but it's a Python script, so I'm not sure if more's required for installation/running than your standard Mac app?
