How many hardcore gamers do you know who are also avid Mac users? Probably not many. Windows users have thousands of titles to choose from, and cheap hardware to run their games on. Despite the many virtues of the Mac platform, it is not the first choice of serious gamers. Even the speedy new G5's will not change that.

Years ago I had a Mac IISi and ran a cool program called RoboSport by Maxis. My friend had a Windows box and also ran the Windows version of RoboSport.
I was very smug in that the Mac version was clearly superior in every aspect, interface, sound, graphics etc.
There's no reason why the Mac being a better gaming platform be the norm again. If not in quantity of titles then at least in quality.
