[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 3713550, member: 19675"] Long-time Apple-now-Mac user. My G4, while not able to dual-boot, is quite capable of running a lot of Windows stuff with an emulator with minimal fuss...but its old enough that it can't run a lot of the newer stuff- [I]Mac or Windows.[/I] When next I upgrade, it will be to another Mac, one on which the cross-platform issue is greatly reduced. There are lots of companies big & small doing dual platform software that is incompatible with itself (i.e. the Mac and Windows versions can't talk to each other well), and others that start off with the mindset of cross-platform compatibility and program accordingly. So it does dissapoint me that WotC would choose launch their new product with Macs left in the cold. I only bother with Windows stuff that I need for my law practice or other business needs. So far, it hasn't necessitated buying a PC. (Exception: a couple of CLE sites don't neccessarily recognize when I've "attended" my online lectures- to ensure I get credit, I log in on my Dad's Dell.) However, they probably weren't going to get my money anyway- I have a really deep aversion to using a computer at the gaming table or paying for digital-only content. [/QUOTE]
