It's in the computer forum and there are a number of Mac users there who are giving recommendations on the tools they use.
Thanks for pointing me in that direction. I didn't even know that there was an ENWorld computer forum.

That and the fact that most 1/2e adventures are built for parties with more than the standard four PCs. All of the adventures I'm looking to convert are for 6-8 PCs.
Add the two factors together and I'm suddenly looking at the adventures "power-creeping" well out of my current group's reach. Not something I want to have happen.

I think that's exactly what I'm going to be doing, both for the reason mentioned above and to take advantage of 3E's bells and whistles (Templates, Prestige Classes, etc.).
If this were something I was doing for mass consumption (ie, for public download) I'd be much more concerned with adhering to the letter of author's story. But since I'm merely using it for personal gain, I don't mind tailoring the adventures to suit my needs and tastes.
And BTW, I've tried to download PCGen, but the download site seems to be down currently. It looks very cool though, so I'll keep trying.
