One word, for all you "Macs-suck-for-gaming" knownothings. Crysis. the newest iMac, the iMac right before these ones, the Mac Pro, and (I hear) the upper MacBook Pros can run Crysis. Crysis isn't for OS X, you say? Right. It's for windows. And guess what?

Macs can run Windows now.

its genious, you can pay for a mac and a windows computer all at once!!! Wow, that makes windows look soo badd!! I don't know why I still run windows! duh. Mac os does suc for gaming. Macs have 10% of the downloads for the sims 2 whild windows have 90% of the downloads.
Oh and btw with hacking, (to legally do it, you have to become/be a apple devoloper), you can run mac on intel pc's. You just have to due some research.

I just had a thought... what if Apple came up with there own game consul that could run the interface of xbox 360 and there own interface as well???

Before or after Microsoft sues them? It would also have to cost around 1000 dollars as well. I mean Apple dose not really try to hide the fact they overcharge for everything they do/sell.

very true

Yeah, I actually played Crysis on an iMac at the Apple Store when I got mine, and I was blown away! I just don't want to risk installing Windows because I don't want to get viruses and bad things like that.

Installing Windows does not mean you're gonna get viruses. Install it, go ahead!! Get avast antivirus once it is installed. No worries from there on out. Don't download any shotty stuff, crap like those fake crack sites and you'll be fine.

Well, who knows, I might install just so I can play some of my old games

I got a picture of it now:

What does that Apple TV do anyways? The Ipod dock is pretty cool I guess. I own a 20 gig Ipod Photo myself that I got for really cheap from the good guys when they were closing all their stores. Anyways I got a Firewire cable for my Ipod and I got a Ihome radio/alarm/docking station with Remote for my Ipod. for about 80 bucks at costco.

The Ipod/Iphone should be the only thing I'll ever buy from apple though and I do admit to myself I get ripped off buying them too. Not to mention they make me a target for a jumping out on the streets. Some guy in NY city was killed over his.

Oh that was actually an extra hard drive , but I do have an Apple TV. What it does is you hook it up to your TV, and then it connects to your iTunes library from anywhere in your house. That way if you buy a movie or TV show on iTunes, you can now watch it on your TV instead of your computer. You can also listen to your music and view photos, and you can even rent movies and buy TV shows directly from it. If you've ever used Front Row on a Mac, then it's that, only on your TV.

I can do that with my computer by itself. In fact I think I will be hooking my computer up on my HDTV. I'll need to get a wireless mouse and keyboard and a way to play my computer audio from the TV speakers. I know theres a audio input in the back somewhere. Either way it will be really cool, the main reason would be for gaming and watching instant view on netflix. Though I am not sure how I am going to RP with my friend then even if its nothing sexual its a lot of babying going on.

Most HDTV's I see now come with a VGA input.
