I own SoF2 for PC and play MP a lot. I'm thinkin about getting a mac and was wondering if MP works fine under mac os x too. Does the code get patched? Where can these patches be found and are they concurrent with the pc patches? Is there a mac site for this game that is active in any way? (www.omnigroup.com and macplay doesn't hold much info...) If MP is ok on the mac, do I have to buy a new copy of the game or can I use my current CD-key and just download some binaries somewhere?

Macs are excellent business computers. Better than PC's for that area I believe. But for games, nothin beats PC right now. I have a Mac for everything but games, and a new Whoop Ass Dell for games. It's the 'Best Of Both Worlds.'

The only part of a Mac that may be considered "better" is the CPU, since Macs use RISC chips and not CISC chips. http://www.lameindustries.org/tutorials/risccisc/risccisc.shtml The rest of Mac hardware stays way behind that of PC's. Look at the video cards for Macs; they're a generation behind their PC counterparts. I just noticed the SoundBlaster Live! cards for sale for the Mac; where's the Audigy? Functionally, there's nothing you can do on a Mac that you can't do on a PC. Macs, however, still dominate the educational market. Most A/V editing guys I know still use Macs. Personally, Macs are just "fun." I have had Windows, Mac, and Linux boxes all peacefully coexisting on my network. I had an Elite Force server running in Linux, with Windows boxes and Macs all connected to it for LAN parties. OS X is really just a flavor of *nix with a graphical shell. There has been talk of porting the Mac OS to x86 processors.... That one-button mouse thing; I've never understood that one. Of couse, Mac also makes that 23" Cinema Display.

MAY be better, but isn't. RISC may be better, but 2.8Ghz crushes the G4's 800(i think)mhz duals....

plus, a top end Mac could set u back 5 large.

i'd like to have 1 as a toy tho...

The new dual 1.25Ghz G4 Power Mac would crush a P4 2.8 flat out. But I still wouldn't buy it to play games and surf the internet.
