This is for TMy more than anyone else.

I, most likely being the only macintosh user in the game, have a problem.

First off, I can't download the Downloadable Version, because my mac can't read the PC software.

Next, the game itself works, but goes VERY SLOW. So slow that I can't even pull off a Shinkuu Hadoken in practice mode. It takes almost a full second to do a quick punch.

Also, while in a server, the chat feature doesn't work. I type stuff into the textbox and hit enter...and nothing shows up on the screen. Also, noone else's chats appear on the screen either.

I'm not sure if this is a problem with the game, or just the fact that the game doesn't work on macintosh computers. I'd sure like to find out though.

And there's maybe a 1% chance that it's a problem with my computer, because it's a two-week old brand new iMac G-4, 512 mb RAM, 80 gig hard drive with an Optimum Online (READ: cable) connection to the internet.

Is it possible that you could get a mac-using friend or associate of yours to help work on a mac version of the game, or do I just have to wait to get a PC before I can play again? (note, this is NOT sarcasm or anything, but a serious question)
