Hi Edorix...I'm cheered to see another person with a MAC trying to get RTW installed.
After getting advice from the MAC forum on whether you really need to designate 10 gigs of hard drive space to run Windows ( they recommend you do...), and being told my copy of Windows XP would probably not work...(GAAAGGHHH!!), I finally bit the bullet yesterday and ordered a MAC version copy of RTW direct from Feral Interactive.
€25 including postage...approx $30....Galling ( Gauling?) to have to rebuy a game I already own, and not cheap when you can pick up a PC version of this for what....$8 now?
Anyway, only ordered it yesterday so will hopefully receive, install and test before next weekend. Will give a report just in case there are other poor sods out there who prefer MACs!
UPDATE-------------
On checking with Feral Interactive this morning ( just ensuring the order was being handled....) it turns out they don't have the game ready. It's in the store on their website as if you can purchase it. When you add it to your basket the word 'preorder' comes up in small letters in the item's description. Their email notification of your order doesn't mention this either,( actually tells you your order will arrive in 2/3 days...).
When I spoke to a guy at the company he explained they were having 'issues' with running it on MAC which they want to iron out. Consequently they can't give a release date........
There's only one word for this................GGGGAAAARRGGGHHARRRGGHHH!!!
