I just went to download the client for world of warcraft.

I noticed I could DL and install it on mac.

I think some of the higher end ones can handle it ok, but I wouldnt try it with the every day units.

I've actually heard that Mac's are good for High Res gaming. I have WoW but I haven't been playing it Recently. But yeah, I guess Macs are fast, and the video cards are able to work well.

The reason I find this interesting is because I never have experienced a good mac. Just the crumby old ones around school and such.

I never actually pictured playing wow on a mac either.

the mac is fine for high res gaming as long as you have got a good graphics card. the highest you can get on a mac is geforce 7600 GT 256mb i think. you cant run games at highest settings but it should do.

I've never considered playing any kind of game on a Mac. In my opinion, Mac OS it the worst operating system out there. No wonder they are selling iPods and iPhones, they've finally accepted that they can't compete with Microsoft, so they are branching off into different areas.
