Hello, Mac Gaming Machine

I'm real close to installing Boot Camp on my iMac for this, the 6fps with all settings turned up will be well worth it. What can I say, I'm addicted to the game :)

Good to see that games seem to run as quick, if not quicker in the windows environment. Im wondering if there is a performance boost with non-universal apps (such as photoshop and after effects) if installed in windows...since the performance of these programmes in osx under with a intel chip is fairly lack luster

er, on osx.

nathaniel, it says 6fps more with full details vs default on mac.

Finally Mac gamers can do what Linux gamers have been doing for years: reboot into Windows

and when are the linux studs gonna make their own iLife/Spotlight/Automater apps?

This is great news. I'm quite surprised Windows only gets 6 FPS more -- I mean, seriously -- the universal binary for WoW just came out a little while ago and has had virtually no time to mature. The windows WoW client has had over a year to be tweaked and optimized, plus it runs in DirectX which should give it a much faster route to the video hardware than OpenGL under OSX.

Half Life 2 ran stunningly well (I believe I was at 1024 x 768), HDR enabled in Lost Coast, though it started to hiccup upon enabling FSAA. All options were at max.

Hey guys, i tried call of duty 2 on my imac core duo 17" running windows under boot camp with the default ATI drivers, and it comes up with a render error when i try to launch the game, anyone else had this problem?

I'm not that surprised at all that it runs faster using Windows, I'm sure after the Universal version of WOW is tweaked more and Intel OS X gets more updates, their won't be much of a difference at all.
