Why I finally dumped Internet Explorer

Why would all you hardware not work? Almost everything you have should work with a Mac.

H_TeXMeX_H:
Yeah, I don't see too much of a problem ... unless you mean you got few games on Mac.

Dark_Me:
Which isn't that true. There are quite a lot of games for Macs, just not as many as for Windows (why do people always say PC? Apples are PC's as well.)

WMD:

OpenGL + Core Audio.  There's a few other things DirectX does, although, I'm not sure how often they are used.

I don't quite understand this either. I always thought that pc ment personal comptuer not windows when the definition changed I really don't know.

You are right there are quite a few but still there are more for windows. One of my favorite games Battlefeild 2 is only for windows and halo that is for both NFS is only windows. anyway you get my point.

 Yeh but see the problem with that is directx is a all in one so in programming you just need to know direct x. Open gl is the graphics core audio is the audio etc. but that isn't all in one so you need to know each indiviual thing.

It isn't a matter of the hardware working in the mac the problem come to the software. Drivers and software that are required to run the hardware. Like example I have a ati radion 9200se unsupported by mac because there is no drivers for it. and then my ATI TV WONDER VE unsupported by mac because no drivers for it. Out of frustration i took my dvd decoder out of my p2 to see if I could get that g3 to at least play dvds. I was sure it would work because it didn't need drivers to work just a dvd software well i couldn't find the cable to link the decoder the the ati rage 128.
