Mac

[oudysseos]

I play EB, M2TW all with max video settings etc on a 2 year old 24" iMac using a bootcamp partition with windows xp. For everything else I use MacOS. I have had windows pcs and will never buy another if I can help it.

Anyway, to the OP, you can indeed play games on a Mac (and they look great) but you need to bootcamp windows. For this, you need a windows install disk: the bootcamp part is free with the MAc OS. The process is fairly easy to follow.

The idea is to buy the PC (far better value for money in terms of the hardware) and dump the Windows in favour of a different OS. If you want Mac OS ... the money you save by not buying a MAC can easily more than compensate for having to buy the OS separately. (I mean it: Apple sells some of its consumer hardware with a price tag of enterprise server kits.) Although I got myself Kubuntu 8.10 and upgraded to 9.04 instead (all for free).
