So, as long as your hardware meets the System Requirements it will run. I'd love to test this however. JCL, do you think we can get one of these for the US office?

I should think it's in Conitec's interest to 100% confirm compatibility as this could be a new user base. (It would help me with my buying decision too ;-) GameStudio Commercial 6.40.5 / WED V6.731 / MED 6.814

(It would help me with my buying decision too ;-) I'd love to, but we can't test every computer configuration under the sun (not even Microsoft has the money to do that ). 3DGameStudio will run on any Windows machine as long as that machine meets our posted specs. If your Apple boots up as a Windows machine, its a Windows machine. If you send me your Apple computer, I can confirm compatibility. Just make sure to include return postage (or I'll have to keep it ). Conitec's Free Resources: User Magazine \|\| Docs and Tutorials \|\| WIKI
