To be fair, perhaps Mythic didn't anticipate Apple's market share to climb the way it did when Warhammer was first being developed, but one would expect Mythic to announce an OS X port should it succeed in penetrating into World of Warcraft's market. At the very least, we can say with even more confidence now that developers are <i>dumb</i> to ignore OS X for the <i>next</i> MMOG generation.

WoW supports OS X. Guess I'll stick with WoW. I wonder what percentage of WoW machines are OS X? And of those, what portion is still PowerPC (like me -- no Boot Camp for me!)? Even the brand new Spore supports OS X. WAR does not support OS X? WoW supports OS X. Guess I’ll stick with WoW. I wonder what percentage of WoW machines are OS X?
