      cool sig, personally I like Macs better but PCs definitely do not suck at all, though Windows is a lot buggier than a Macintosh. That, along with the complex file system, are the drawbacks to PCs. But enough about that...I have heard of something called Executor that is an emulator for the PC that simulates Mac. Howevere, I also hear it is buggy, maybe not anymore though. If you have success, post it here cuz I'd be interested in a decent PC EV.

    • Actually, I have tried Executor!
      When I tried to play EV in it, part of the screen was cut off, and you couldn't target ships...

      Sorry, that's about all I know. The best thing to do is get your hands on a Mac asap(one that can play EV). At least, that's what I think you should do. Keep checking to see if anyone else has an idea.

      ...and the rebels are excellent!

    • There is a 68K emulator called vMac that is less buggy than Executor and free: (url="http://"http://leb.net/vmac/main.html")http://leb.net/vmac/main.html(/url). There is also SoftMac: (url="http://"http://www.emulators.com/softmac.htm")http://www.emulators.com/softmac.htm(/url). It runs PowerMac, but it costs. I believe there is a demo if you want to test it out.

      We use Macs here, not pc's so we don't keep track of every single game on the pc market. So if there is one, try going to a pc game webboard and asking there.
