NoSup4U 0 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 I hope you play on Full Tilt. That is your Mac software option as far as I know.Mark Link to post Share on other sites
checkymcfold 0 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 you can install windows on mac computers with intel chips and have them run just like pcs. no reason to buy crappy dells anymore. Link to post Share on other sites
fflcdndctx 0 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 You can split the hard drive into a Mac and windows system. They know have a program where you can run both at same time. However if you do that you will have voided the Mac warranty! Link to post Share on other sites
ukwildcat09 0 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 Mac warranties are only a year long, so it doesn't really matter. Link to post Share on other sites
ROACHBABY 0 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 As stated above, you can run windows on most any new mac you buy. I haven't done this with my macbook pro. I usually just play full tilt on my mac which is probably your best option. Also, absolutepoker has a new "instapoker" or something that acts as a pop-up, so no downloaded is required. This is also an option. Good Luck. Macs rule!!!!!! Link to post Share on other sites
strivewind 0 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 if you dont play fulltilt, you can setup dual boot using boot camp from apple or get a software called parallels which allow you to run a virtual machine of windows at the same time which you can install any other sites software. the other bad thing about using mac is that you can't install poker tracker or software like that because they are usually not compatible with mac. hth Link to post Share on other sites

vbnautilus 48 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 If you wish to desecrate your Mac by installing Windows on it you may, and parallels is a good option for virtualizing so that you can run both at once. Link to post Share on other sites

Scotia_Guy 0 Posted March 25, 2007 Share Posted March 25, 2007 First day with a MAC and it is awesome. I've played on stars using parallels and booting in XP and both work flawlessly. I was a little nervous at first but don't be. Works great. Stars says they will have a MAC client out later this year anyways so meh.... Link to post Share on other sites
