Apple's .dmg file format is used to deliver software or other files as a disk image. For a computer running Mac OS X you double click on the .dmg file and it will open and mount on the desktop as a disk. You can then either run the installer script or drag the contents from the mounted disk image onto the Mac's hard disc. Once you have finished with the contents of the disk image it can be ejected and deleted.
