Mac Lion

Well it looks like NWN won't work on Lion. It says powerPC applications are no longer supported :( I will look for a solution (that does not include buying another PC).

It looks like the solution is to use some emulator (WINE, Parallels, or Crossover) and run the windows version. Looks like no more lunch time play sessions for me.

I am running a mac version of NWN.  I could always send it to you.

@ Gil thanks for the offer but, it won't run on Lion so don't upgrade. They removed rosetta which is needed to run the mac version of NWN. So if you use a mac and you want to upgrade to Lion you will have to move to emulation and use the windows version of NWN.

Lion, Apple's answer to Windows Vista!

From what I've heard so far regarding new incompatibility issues, people will be hoarding their Snow Leopard disks for years to come, just like they did with XP.

Run Bootcamp with an XP partition -- that's what I do.

What's so bad about WINE? Unless you're running an ATI card, that is. :P
