Yes, due to mac os always for some reason has terible drivers, 3100 runs quite well on xp and linux, mac is a whole different story!

And in regards to source, I do also have the siluet problem when people get too far away, any idea how to fix that, I tried all settings and it is the same story, I ussually only play assault so that's one of the worst things to have, not seeing far, and I ussually go through front as ct, its deathly horrible!

I play Battlefield 1942 on my white MacBook, and it runs great in XP through Boot Camp at max settings. I tried the 1942 Mac version demo and it ran, albeit choppy, though I assumed that was due to the lack of a universal binary patch.

Just to note, mine is a SR MacBook with GMA X3100 graphics.
Battlefield 1942 and Desert Combat run like lightning in OS X. I have it at 1366 x 768 and it's great.

Well I deduce from previous posts that actually games run better on XP by boot camp, than naturally prepared for OSX...:confused:
Gaming is much better in Windows with the hardware.

shame... especially due to the fact that I've actually tried to escape from windows... far, far away :D puf. However, despite the slow-running Prey and half-slow-runninng Battlefield, OSX is great :D
