Hmmm. I guess that means that we'll have to find Mac developers that would be willing to make QuentinC's Playroom available for the Mac for free since Aminiel refuses to make one himself. That's one of the reasons I use Windows is so I can play those games. Yeah I know about the web client, but if you read my post about it in an older thread about why people use Windows, you'll know why I dislike it.
