[PLUG] So... Gaming.


I wanted to get a quick sense from PLUG users what they're currently doing for PC gaming. I don't have dedicated access to a decent Windows PC for gaming use, though my MacBook Pro has Steam and many of the Mac ports of my Steam games on it. It's decent for those games which devs have seen fit to port over and there's always Crossover to try to shoehorn the port-less games in.

However, it's gotten to the point (particularly for first-person shooters) where it seems like I'd need a decently-equipped Windows PC in order to run them. What are folks doing to help stave this off?

PS: I've got a PS3 and a Wii, but I have a TON of back-catalog games grabbed off ridiculous Steam/Amazon sales that are just waiting for the right rig to come along and I really don't want to re-buy them for a console. Plus, keyboard + mouse whups a controller, any day.
