[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 407607, member: 8287"] Similar but different. A DMG is a Disk Image, like an ISO on the PC. You double click and it mounts as a drive icon on the desktop. Inside is usually the application, and all you do to install in a most cases is drag the application out of the DMG and drop it in the Applications folder. Then you drop the open DMG in the trash and it un-mounts. Sometimes there might be a setup file in the DMG which you run to install the application, but most are just the app. [/QUOTE]
