There'll be no living with Brant now.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Something people don't realize is that the Mac always had a HUGE shareware community.  I spent a lot of years playing games like Avernum, GeneForge, and TaskMaker for the price of a postcard here and there.

I'm glad some big-name games are coming to the platform, though.  It should help dent unnecessary arguments about OS's.

There are a fair number of ports to Mac. I played Dragon Age 2 on my MacBook and it ran like a gem.

I also used Bootcamp to install Windows XP so now I can play all my windows games on my Mac. XP runs fine under Bootcamp.

It's unlikely I'll own a dedicated Windows machine ever again.

The unwritten piece of that article is that Bethesda has mapped all the important moves in Skyrim online to the right mouse button...  ;)
