Yes it is. You will have difficulties with mouse blocking, though  :lol:

Use BootCamp to install Windows on your mac, install warband and crpg.

Apples had 2 button mice for over 5 years chief.  Just because you dont see the 2nd button doesnt mean it isnt there.

Yes.
Yes it is. You will have difficulties with mouse blocking, though  :lol:

And never take advice from someone who has never used a mac who thinks that we still use one-button mouse.  :lol:

Yes I do, and it is easily playable, just as much as on a standard PC. That one-button mouse is a pile of urban-legend rubbish, it is free for a reason, and they sell alternatives for a reason (Unless you are one of those odd people who want to buy a 1700 to 3000 dollar Mac just for the status and never use it for what it is intended, in which case they should have bought a PC).
Use BootCamp to install Windows on your mac, install warband and crpg.

This.


To The OP:
Basically, if you have an intel chip (and I assume you do) then it (your mac)should have included a nifty program called BootCamp

Bootcamp allows you to install any Windows Operating system of your choice of the new ones, so XP SP1, XP SP2, XP SP3 (that I use), Vista (Don't use that) or Windows 7. Bootcamp is also Free and Legal.

Then just play it normally.

And for the love of god buy a real mouse, and avoid the "Mighty Mouse" aka the Crapple Mouse. I have a 7 button mouse with my mac, and I highly suggest you buy at least a 5 button one if you have not already (though any self-respecting mac user has already done this).

I'm not normal and I don't pretend so, my approach is pretty much a bomb crescendo.
Death is a fun way to pass the time though, several little bullets moving in staccato.
The terror of my reign will live on in infamy, singing when they die like a dead man's symphony.
