    Agreed, you brought this one on yourself by contributing to the funding of apple which only makes the continue producing substandard products at high prices.

As soon as people stop buying their products they will start making them better and revamp the operating system so it isn't even worse that windows.

    Then we'd have an operating system that could run things which wasn't windows?

    Why not get linux? Cause jack **** runs on it

        It occurs to me that my first post may have appeared sarcastic. I really do have sympathy for all the Mac users.

          Thank dainbramaged13, your humanity gets me right here *points to backside*.

          But I know the date we'll get the game differs from release, I'll be lucky to get it from amazon within three days of the game coming out. What gets me is the stupid clock which takes no account of the decision not to release the same game on the same day the world over.

                A actually like the idea of a MP counter. It might force Firaxis to give us some information about it.

                  I agree Sabre, but don't hold your breath waiting for it to happen!

                    People did stop buying Mac, and they did what you suggested.

                    OSX, iMac, G4 Cube... They are all over the place now because they're soooooooo cool. I wonder why PCs still look like 1981 Xerox photocopiers.

                      If you wanted your computer to look different, just buy a new case. They make many different one now-a-days, although they cost more than standard cases. I dont know why anyone would care how their case looks though
                      I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).

                        Ah the 'I buy a Mac because they look pwetty' crowd. Aesthetics have nothing to do with this, I want the superior computer. You can hide a tower under the table.

                        And yes, I will not be pleased if I have to wait nearly 3 weeks to get hold of the game in this country. Until it is released, it will be warez here I come...

                          I just wish Infogames would releae a difinative release date schedule. Because there is a lot of uncertainy. E.G. the UK date
                          I have walked since the dawn of time and were ever I walk, death is sure to follow. As surely as night follows day.

                            I suppose you care about the look of your dress, home furnitures, car... I'm not speaking about forced/induced fashion false needs, I'm speaking about visual satisfaction you get from a product, when it already fit the original purpose.

                            You usually spend good cash for an object as appealing as a "lemon box". The whole Industrial Design concept exist around this argument. But we are digressing.

                            Well, it seems the start of similar debate on graphics role in TBS as Civ III Noooo, not another one, I beg you!


                            Edited: and this was my last post... as Prince
                            Funny, I almost never really checked for my forum rank, until a few days ago I realized I'll be promoted King just before the Civ III release: that will be a bunch of days before my next birthday, too. Call it a lucky coincidence!

                              There's a countdown on Civ3.com?

                              OT:
                              IMO, a computer looks the coolest with the case taken off

                              And if you really care about how your pc case looks, you can have it modded for $50-$100 with LED's, fans and paint

                                If you buy a Dell 8100, you get the best of both worlds. It looks different from all the boring 1980-style computers and you still get a quality machine My computer looks nice and runs flawlessly

                                EDIT: Looks don't matter, just like size doesn't matter
