It looks like I may be able to run L4D on my Mac after all. That being said, I have no idea how to make this work. Maybe one of my local computer-savvy friends could help me with this one day? *bats eyelashes* I will cook for you and give you booze if you do!

See, it turns out that if I load something called Boot Camp on my computer, and then do something involving partitioning and installing Windows, then I'll be able to do it. This will also give me, as far as I can tell, the ability to run Windows software like Word and others without my Mac being a total pain in the ass about it.

Is there anyone local who can help me? Or can you point me toward a computer person whom I can pay to do this for me? Please please please pretty please with a cherry on top?

1- I have no idea. I wouldn't even know a Windows emulator if it came up and bit me.

2- Yep. I have an Intel-based Mac. All is well there.

3- I'm not planning to do it myself, but duly noted.

4- Yep. Will work on that.

5- As far as I can tell, the current computer has more than enough oomph to run the game.


6. IMHO, if you haven't done this sort of thing before, you really should get someone who knows more about Mac OS X to do it for you...

Hence why I asked for someone local who knows what they're doing to come do it for me in exchange for beer, food, and possible extra remuneration, depending on how hard it is to do...
