I do expect them to make an effort, but you can me nicer here. Telling them
‘No, it does not running directly on OS X, you need a VM running Linux. Try VirtualBox or some other too with Ubuntu Linux.
Plus the documentation is a very useful place to get started as it explains a lot of questions you may have http://dpdk.org/doc ‘
That would have been one of the answers to give instead of a quick 2 second not-so-nice response.
