Hi guys

I got a Power Book 17-inch and I am hoping when
Half-life 2 comes out to play it on the Mac.
However Half-Life 2 wont be able to play on the
Mac OS for a wile so I was just wondering, what
ways could I make Half-life 2 play on my Mac.

Is a duel boot possible, or is there any software I
could install to run windows programmes.

Virtual PC emulates an old S3 Trio which is not capable of DirectX 9 (probably not even 7) and therefore will not run even in Virtual PC. Virtual PC 7 is supposed to use your real video card instead of an emulated one, so when it comes out and if Microsoft follows that then it may be possible.
