Question......

Will there ever be Graal for Macs? Is it even possible. A friend of mine is addicted to Macs, and he was just wondering....

I'd own a Mac if I was into more graphic design, and stuff like that, otherwise, Macs kind of suck.

I doubt you'll ever see a Mac version. Sorry. Or a Linux version for that matter... though it is possible!

Graal is coded in Delphi, right? I don't know much about it... if it can be ported to Linux, it wouldn't be that difficult to do. Well. the lighting effects in graal use D3D, so Stefan would need to change it to use OpenGl ...

Nah, I wouldn't say really suck, Mac has some advantages..but in the end they do suck.

The "yet" is interesting. Do you mean to say that GraalOnline would consider hiring programmers at some point?

Hey come on! Macs are cool, I wish I had a Mac OS X is really nifty. Plus a lot of newer macs come with DVD-R drives! Can't beat that!

I say, if Graal could be ported over to Mac with little effort, then it should be done. No harm could come from it. It could increase the userbase.

Think about it... Few online games are made for Mac. This could really attract a lot of new players. Just release one version for Mac and see how it goes.

Same goes for Linux

If you have a Mac you can run Windows 98. I've seen it done. It runs Windows about 4 times as fast and it doesn't get stuck in all the crap that windows does. Guy I saw had it installed so he could play Ultima Online

I think you should knock some sense into your friend and tell him that Mac's don't really have a future
