Looks pro, very indie. You can also play WoW and Spore on a mac, go figure!

There is quite a few decent games for the Mac, the difficulty now isn't getting the games, it's affording a Mac with a decent graphics card. It's cheaper to buy yourself a decent Alienware PC than a PowerMac tooled for gaming.

I hate the Apple hardware it is horrendously overpriced, the only reason I still buy Macs is because I think the OS is the best on the market.

Emphasis on the dell.
Dells in general are poorly built, poorly designed and overpriced with pretty much every corner cut possible. They have a bad reputation amongst gamers for a reason.
I don't mean to put down macs because they're macs or anything, but they're never ever going to beat a half-decent custom-built machine in any field, what's more they'll have the notoriously terrible choice of games.

Heh, I love it. Back in Newcastle, all the public parks had a symbol for some Council Agency on them that was an exact rip of the symbol.

Couple of pages of sightings here as well.
