  1. Comment - Apple Reports Higher Mac, iPod Sales

    I guess you never played World of Warcraft? I know it's only 1 game but it came out at the same time for both Windows and MacOS X (PowerPC at the time).. it only took them a month (if even) to get a Universal Binary version out for Intel Macs and when they release a patch it comes out for both Windows and MacOS at the same time. (and if i'm not mistaken they've done this for ALL the games they've ever released!)

    Every gaming company should look at Blizzard and take a hint from them. They know how to make good games and they know how to make them for both platforms!

    Not really. What was available (Virtual PC/QEMU) don't work on the new Intel Macs. Q (from QEMU) works but it takes 5 min to boot and a few hours to install XP. Plus some updates from Microsoft refuse to install.

    I've tried Parallels Workstation for MacOS X and it's blazing fast. Boots WindowsXP in about 3 sec!

    Ahah! You can't possibly put "Microsoft" and "Free" in the same sentance!

    You paid for it... you paid software assurance!
