You don't want to run PC games into VPC. Performance will be awful, even of the fastest G5. He should buy the Macintosh version of the games he wants to play. And believe me, even though not all PC games have been ported for the Mac, there are still plenty to keep you busy for at least one year of playing full time! -Laurent. -- ======================================================================== Laurent Daudelin Developer, Multifamily, ESO, Fannie Mae mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Washington, DC, USA ************************ Usual disclaimers apply *********************** -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
