    To bad that macs don't have good hardware for games.

    Like a mid-tower with a pci-e video card.

    Lol what apple have you been following? Mac is made to be incompatible with everything including itself and users. Part of their whole dare to be different thing. Thats why iPods commit suicide if you use them as data storage (features they didnt explicitly give you). Its also why everytime the iPod gets a patch you can't use programs aside from itunes to put music on it until they've figured out wth apple did. Also why the ipod doesnt use a mini usb cable to connect to the computer. If they thought they could get away with making a different audio out than standard they would.
     
      If you bought a Mac to be compatible and play games on you REALLY picked the wrong system. Macs are there to be expensive different and cool in a i wear a french beret kind of way.
     
      I'm not saying windows is any better with standards but atleast they have enough of a market share to bully people into adopting standards. Mac is like an effeminate midget telling everyone what to do or else, it just doesnt work. Really buying a mac is like moving into a dictatorship. You get told what speakers what camera what printer and what keyboard you get to use (if they arent already welded into a single piece). In exchange you get to pay extra and if anything breaks pay ALOT extra. But you feel safe knowing that everything is uniform, like walking in lockstep.

    Remember, macs are the artistic computers. So the trannies are almost 100% of the mac customer base.
