Massively, one of Weblogs, Inc.'s newer gaming blogs, recently started a Mac-centric feature devoted to all things MMO. MMOS X is published bi-weekly and tells you all about the latest native Mac MMO's ... none of that virtualized or Bootcamp stuff, only the good native games. To find out what version of Mac OS you are running, go to the Apple logo in the top left corner, click it and choose About This Mac. From that window you will see the version number, processor, memory and chosen startup disk. Clicking Software Update will check for updates, and More Info... will open up an extensive list of everything on your machine.

This not even grammar nazi issue: bi-weekly means every fourteen days or so. SEMI-week means every three to four days.

From the Oxford English Dictionary
biweekly
• adjective & adverb appearing or taking place every two weeks or twice a week.
• noun (pl. biweeklies) a periodical that appears biweekly.
It's like bimonthly: it can mean twice a month or every other month.

I don't mean to be a a troll; I'm honestly interested in what people have to say about this: I play a lot of games on my mac - in Windows. For me, there's no reason to care about mac gaming any more, a topic I used to be very interested in, when the huge variety of first run PC games are just a restart away. Rebooting, a thirty second process, just doesn't bug me that much.
Can someone give me a good argument for why I'm wrong?

My main one is just that of convience. I may wnat to play a game, but I don't want to have to log out of Mail, iChat, Remote Desktop, NetNewsWire, iPhoto to do it.
Although, the space savings can be a big deal too. if you are using Boot Camp, you relaly can't do much less than 20GB for a partition. Us laptop users may not be able to spare that much (I'm in that boat). I still need access to WinXP for work, but it only takes up 5.2GB currently, thus saving me just about 15GB. That's a lot of Mac games I get for 15GB.
