Gaming on the MAC seems to be the new thing
So, now that COD4, City of Heroes, and Spore have been released on the MAC, and games like Diablo 3 and Starcraft 2, and others to come ....it looks like gaming on the MAC is probably going to start to take off.
I'd find this to be huge and if Steam get released for the MAC(ofc with all the Valve games.. duh) I would start thinking oh so much harder about getting one.
What's y'all take on this?

steam IS released for mac.....kind of. there is a program that you can get that "bottles" steam and the steam games into a .app file on the mac, making steam and steam games playable on the mac. my brother was playing tf2 on the ville for a few weeks on his mac while his PC was out of commission.

Freaking awesome and correct.
It seems like Mac is more of a "life" or a "way" of being then actually anything else.
I must say I love the commecials, and its funny they say that you can now run everything on a MAC that runs on a PC, but they fail to mention, that it requires you to partition your drive which is shoddy at best for windows to run in, hope you don't run out of space, that is a mess if you do.
And then you have to purchase windows yet on top of it.
Plus now its Intel so now all the problems of the PC are now Mac problems also, just more expensive to fix.
