No offense to Housebot as I love the app, but as far as windows on the iMac - why are you trying to dress up a race horse to look like a donkey?

Look in to http://www.perceptiveautomation.com/ind ... ml] Indigo from perceptive home automation. It's native on the iMac and an awesome HA app. You can also find several decent media-center style apps for the MAC.

If you’re stuck on defiling the lovely iMac with Windows then you may want to look into getting the Insteon USB controller as it has an X10 mode and from other reports works much better as an X10 controller than the CM11A.
