So hows that mac port going?

[Gramul]

Why should the developers have to waste their time just for some people to be able to play the game on MAC while those players can just install Windows on the same machine.

So they don't have to.

So they don't have to.

Exactly. Not everyone is interested in buying a Windows license just to play a single game. If Square advertises their port pretty well they can capture a significant portion of the market since there are so few MMORPG options for mac users. A Steam linux version would be pretty sweet. The more the better I say, and it would be a statement in it of itself - Square taking a chance on Linux users where most others wouldn't. But some will rage at a Linux port...

... Then there is funding, I don't really want my subscription fee to be used to develop the client for a niche system which less than 10% of the users actually own when that 10% can already run the game if they install Windows...

Seriously, really? The inflated sense of power some people on this board feel they have is ridiculous. At the mac launch, to spite some users, I hope Yoshida release a mount that is an exact replica of the finder dock icon.
