There are three different versions of Hiarcs 7, the DOS version is a 16 bit, the MAC is a 32 bit because MAC/OS is a 32 bit like Windows, and Windows is 32 bit OS. The difference in OS makes each engine unique. Perhaps the price of Hiarcs 7 for DOS/MAC is more expansive because the consumer is paying for both OS (DOS and MAC OS), as for Hiarcs 7.32 the consumer is paying for only one version of Hiarcs for Windows OS only.
