All of us at special reserve have gazed upon the gaming industries past and current glories in all forms whether it be that of a console or PC.

But what do I hope to see in the future instead of the majority of PC users playing games on there Windows based machine?

Deeper and deeper stretch the marbled hallways of the brilliant games that have been converted to work on the Macintosh Operating System.

We Mac users are beginning to see a light alike no other, it is the waving of all companies working with them instead of against them, they are not as much waving to say 'hi' but waving for 'help', they need to be rescued from the bottomless Microsoft pit, within the past year the change has begun:

---The school kids are happy with there basic amusement and a change from the daily drudgery of class, they go home and enjoy a nice game of 'Theme Park 2 ' on there Mac.

---The students are little better (me), desperately trying not to fail there exams and what nots they play games which seem to call there names within there heads and they cant resist playing 'Deus Ex' again on their Mac.

Even the great Black & White is going to be released on the Mac OS, and with this hugely successful title, comes the essence of satisfaction amoung the users who were disappointed with there ungamable Mac.

Mark my words: Revolution is coming, no longer is the only computer a WIndows run system, the Mac is fighting strongly outselling the PC in other countries.

Black & White is just the beginning....

Thank you

I respect your views Reaper and Yes I agree, but I just grew up on a Mac since I was two years old so forgive me for being prejudice...

...my first mac was a IICX....

Going through a bit of a bad joke phase here er-no..
Anyway, I respect both systems for what they can do, and I'd love to get my hands on a G4 and os x, but pcs do everything that I need, and are much easier to find components and games for.

Yes, that's specific to the card.
You could use a generic windows one, but it would be poor.
This is about when luke steps in and says "ah, but if you had debian, it's just apt-get whatever"
