It is actually a prepackaged emulated executable. Performance will sux and it will be unusable on PPC based computers.

good thing mac makes x86 now

There's a couple ways to get it to work on Linux too.....but performance isn't as good...playable from what I've heard though.

It is good enough for basic missions, I wouldn't dare try it for pvp though.

From another site...

EVE Under Mac OSX
Works practically 'out of the box' under Crossover 6.1 from Codeweavers. You can also use WINE to run EVE.

You cannot play EVE on a Power PC Mac - it will only run on an Intel Mac with OS 10.4 or later

ok all i know is i have a semi new mac and ya. could u give me a link or something im not very intelligent with certain things

 

[Cloud G]

Code weavers you have to pay for it, but there's a free 30 day....so you could use that to tryEVE for 14 days

Here's some info on WINE


I'd try it myself....but....I don't have a Mac

 

[galatian]

o so i have to use something like parallels?

 

[Cloud G]

Yeah, the Mac version isn't out yet.
