[QUOTE="Mercule, post: 3771554, member: 5100"] Exactly. There is at least one poster 'round these parts who has been banging his drum pretty loudly over the fact that his entire group, or nearly so, is non-Windows users. That right there frees up another dozen groups to use DDI. Besides, as has been stated, the target audience for the VTT isn't groups with a currently functional membership. It's groups with a scattered membership that can't get together to game. My college group had one guy who loved Macs. Given the choice between gaming with 5 of my best friends and leaving one guy on the sidelines or not gaming with any of the 6, I'm going to go with the former option. If/when WotC makes a Mac-compatible VTT app, that 6th will be welcome to join. Ditto if he jumps to PC for his next upgrade. Either way, there is no impact to a currently enabled group. A certain set of new groups/players are enabled, however. The only other significant item that is Windows-only is the chargen tool. Paper has worked for a thirty years. It'll continue to work for the forseeable future. If you've gotta have your computer toy, though, I'm sure PCGen will make itself compatible with 4E. [/QUOTE]
