Blizzard and Adobe, the guardians of Windows.

Many blizzard games work almost perfectly under wine including warcraft 3, starcraft and world of warcraft. Last time I tried starcraft anthology (digital download) I did not have any problems.

Eh? I'm under the strong impression that Adobe works nicer on Mac than Windows.

That comment got flagged (wasn't mine), and this one probably will be too. Holy fuck the apple worship on this site is strong sometimes.

I haven't noticed much of a difference. Even if there is, there's the matter of the Mac price tag.

and the utter agony of using a Mac if you're used to Windows.

If you lack the budget for a Mac but you want to do graphic design, Windows is the logical choice.

Fair enough but the parent comment claimed that Adobe (and Blizzard) were keeping Windows alive. How can that be if it runs better or at least just as good on Mac?
