Pax for Mac-- Maybe it's been noted on the Fool already but I just got my copy of MacAddict and there is an ad for Pax Imperia II with the banner "Now available for Macintosh." It's not in stores, but I checked the paximperia.com website and sure enough, it is now listed as available on Jan. 26. I'm excited about it because I think it will be successful. Not only was the original game Mac-only and a big hit, but there is a lot less competition for the gamer's dollar on the Mac side. Recent PC ports such as Civ II, Quake, and Duke Nukem have been selling about 50,000 copies. In a sense one could argue that selling on the Mac platform is like selling Gameboy titles--less competition and real money to be made. Btw, for anyone who wants to understand any biases behind my posts, 2/3 of my shares have the same time horizon as Wildman's, ie I'm hanging on until the fundamentals change. But the other 1/3 I hold have a horizon more Bleeker-like. They are my trading position and lead to my occasional short-term comments on this board. Marc
