I have no idea. I would venture a guess that it is, but I don't do computer
games.
> the Mac platform is very limiting on software
It is very unusual for me to find software that I want to run that doesn't
work on a Mac. The software that caused me to spend $79 on VMware was SPSS.
I guess the key phrase here is "that I want to run". I think that I must be
near the center of the Mac's target user base. In my opinion it does a
better job of running the software that I *do* want to run, like Photoshop
and Lightroom and Mulberry and Firefox and InDesign and terminals and iTunes.
