    It it highly anticipated that Apple is going to announce that it will be shifting its CPU's to an in-house ARM based design. Obviously this will not affect current hardware but it's pretty much the kiss of death for mainstream gaming on the Mac within 3-5 years. In other words, there's not going to be much incentive to spend a lot of money on direct compatibility.

    I heard rumors about this too though I didn’t put much thought to it because of unpredictable rumors could be. Regardless of processor, if they don’t optimize it now, I also feel like they won’t optimize or put little effort to optimize for the future ARM chipset for Mac client
