Being a Mac user has it own advantages, but what you will lack is widely spreader PC games - like Counter-Strike or just any new Havok-powered game. Fortunately, Blizzard are Mac-fans too, so you can play any game they developed without any issue, i.e. World Of Warcraft.
Buuut... If you're an owner of new Intel-based Mac (luckily you) you can play all this gorgeous stuff freely - just boot your Mac into windows and start playing.
What about me, I bought my own Intel-Mac last week and it's wonderful! It's black MacBook and it's twice faster as my huge G5 iMac, very impressive. But when it comes to games... there is a GMA950 Intel video chipset that can't put a lot of frames per seconds to make the latest games playable. I missed like 2 years of PC-gaming after switching to my first Mac. I just wanted to ask anyone - what game will run on my MacBook just fine, I don't need a lot of polygons or shaders, that's what my Xbox 360 is for.
Counter-strike is the only game that comes to my mind now o_O
P.S. Ah, here is the photo of my MacBook... Or BlackBook, CokeBook, or just simply PreciousBook

I've made some SD vs HD resolution comparison on my 26 inch Sammy HDTV. The difference is quite impressive - this TV deserves it's price tag and worth every penny. Can't wait for new HD-DVD and Blue-ray players and beginning of digital HD broadcasting in Russia/Europe.
So... take a look at these pictures I captured with 480i composite, 640x480 VGA (~480p) and 1280x720 VGA (720p).
Now it's time to make your own decisions. Good luck!

I feel a bit addicted to Animal Crossing: Wild World and can't stop playing. There are still a lot of stuff to deal with - golden tools, summer fish and bugs, so I managed to get Official Guide from Nintendo from Amazon.com.
Nice stuff I can say! Now I know how Hammerhead Shark is look like, do you?

Some people just don't have opinions. Like DenisGryzlov.
DenisGryzlov must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could DenisGryzlov possibly have for not rating a single film?
