Why does this game run better on a Mac through Wine than on a native windows 7?

[LuciBlack]

I run better on Wine
;p

(But seriously I know nothing about Mac, its sacrilegious.)

[Defmetal]

That's why Microsoft hasn't been the top company in forever and Apple just overtook Exxon right?
Because nobody uses their products and they make such crappy products that nobody wants to buy them right?

Nobody owns an iphone or an ipad or a mac, and hollywood doesn't almost exclusively use Macs for Final Cut Pro (5-7, not X) and broadcasting. Totally, cuz their products suck right? Or is it that you can't afford one so you need to came to vent your frustration?

Defmetal, your probably talking about Pikachu.

But I just wanted to say, I dont own a iPhone or an iPad, I have my own opinions but ill keep them to myself.
I dont think anyone needs a cell phone or music player on them at all times.
Those two technologys I think are bringing people lower than what we could be.
But i dont even think i know what an iPad is... im just guessing ur talking about a music box.

I dont have any problem living life without them. I find it very disturbing the people who are growing up in this world who think thats what everyone has. I remember the time when no one had a cell phone. Its funny when ppl say you "need" one, i just laugh. Hell, i must be really old cause i remember the time when my family didnt even have a computer.

I like my computers, and i have fun with my windows, i tryed a mac once, and it just wasnt my style. I say its good people have options. As we all know, you cant please everyone.

Dont get me wrong, when i was in 5th grade we had our very first computers in the school i was at, and they were Apples, of course.

"Im against cell phones and music boxs and im proud"

Right it wasn't directed at you Luci.

The iPad is like a giant iphone ... it's Apples answer for a netbook. It has 1024x768 resolution, HDMI support, cameras, SD card reader, professional editing software - including iMovie and Garageband. It's a great laptop replacement, because you don't have to wait for it to boot up, it's small yet has a large enough screen to be useful. We even use it at work as a presentation device - it hooks up to Projectors and can play Powerpoint presentations. Some people use it as a giant toy, but I've found it to be a great business device.

It's also a fantastic ebook reader, the best I've ever used.
Even better, it has amazing VNC support, allowing me to connect through the VNC over VPN to my office network to manage our servers and keep our emails up and running.

As for the iPhone, well, in general needing music and phone with you at all times, my iPhone is my car stereo. It connects to my car over bluetooth and streams about 4000 songs to my car without me having to push a button. Yet, it will cut the song off if I get a phone call, allowing a complete hands-free safe experience while driving. Now, of course this isn't Apple exclusive, it's just a benefit to having them in the same device. When I used to work in medical we couldn't get a radio reception because of all the heavy machinery so the iphone was the only way we had tunes, or the ability to listen to Limbaugh during the day.

Simply put, the iphone allows me to drive my f150, listening to my song of choice, talk on the phone, and smoke a cigar, without being a road hazard. Unfortunately the counter argument would be how many people now text while driving as a result of it

If You Own An Apple Product Beat Yourself In The Head With A Hammer...Your Following Fail Trends!

The reason is that Microsoft sell software, the ones most people use cost at the most of £200, Apple sell over priced hardware, which you cant upgrade, so when the time comes to upgrade you have to buy a completely new over priced comp, you need a graphics card upgrade, you cant you need the whole comp.

If I go to a store I see a mac for £1000, right next to it is a superior PC for half the price. All you are paying for is a picture of an apple, and hell its not even a full one. Everyone that was on my university course agreed that Apple hardware is hugely oveerpriced for what you get, so you can spend over twice as much as me for a comp, then have to keep paying that every 3 years to run games, and i'll just upgrade what I need to when I need to.

The reason you see macs in hollywood is because Apple throw thier money around and pay millions of dollars to see one mac in a movie, and the only applications that macs are superior at running are things like movie editing software and graphics design software.

Please give me 10 good reasons why macs cost over twice as much as a PC, if its worth the price then this should be no problem.

coudlnt make it run on mac :/
