All I have to say is

The operating system. It works as nicely as it looks.

Since I use linux, I bought my mac almost purely because the hardware is purdy. That and it's one of the better made laptops out there, I was tossing up between a Mac and a Thinkpad, and on top of being prettier, I thought a OSX tax was better than a Windows tax.

Wow, this is awesome news. I had been beta testing for them, but at a certain point they took the beta over to PS.net and never updated us on this release. Downloading as soon as I get to my Mac at home.

Just downloaded it and had a a session...

so juiced about this. i was a beta tester and did the play money thing for probably 4 months. couldnt wait till the real money tester came out so i could make some $$ while beta testing.

Hated parallels it was very unstable and would crash randomly, sometimes when i was in a big pot, sucked but didnt have much of a choice.

now i just need to PT and PAHUD to be mac compatible. dont know if i could get them to work with parallels and mac programs... i am sure i could get PT to work by just importing the files in from the mac side to the windows side. PAHUD would be a bit more tricky..

YES!!! When I used Parallels, it would randomly crash when I was in a sng and it would take like 3 minutes to reload. This helps a lot.

$100 to a billionare is not $100 to a homeless woman. there is no natural law saying how much money should be worth to you. i'm not saying you shouldn't have a respect for money, but you should realize that $200 in your bankroll is no longer $200 in your pocket. once it's in your bankroll it should be the $200 to the millionare, that is, that it no longer has any real value to you. it becomes an investment by which to make more money and nothing more. it becomes just a number or an abstract idea of a number.
