Have boot camp up and running, Civ V and StarCraft II run lovely on Windows 7, big upgrade over my netbook!

I've never won anything before either, so you never know it might be your turn next.

I hate you for winning nice things.

icedbullet · 2 Oct 2010 at 02:23

Don't hate the player, hate the game!

Oh how I loathe you o2 for giving nice things to people who aren't me

Wait... you won a Macbook and decided the best thing to do would be to install Windows 7 on it? Starcraft 2 runs great on native OS X!

MikeHunt79 · 2 Oct 2010 at 14:11

Are they giving any more away?

kg648 · 2 Oct 2010 at 14:41

Come to think of it, O2 never sent me my voucher for my free lunch box snack thing of organic food.

Just take a look at all the other threads and the official threads on this forum for tips and apps etc.

I read it runs worse in OSX than it does in Windows, same with a lot of the cross platform titles on Steam, plus I can't play Civ V on OSX.

I'll get a picture soon, on my phone at the moment at an airport!

And I was pleased with the £20 Next voucher they sent me the other day
