All steam games are now compatible on Macs right? That presents a threat to Microsoft. Because let's face it, if you are really into PC gaming, you needed Windows. But now that Steam has Mac support, that may very well change. |
I've been saying this for a year now.
A huge draw for Windows in the home has been gaming, if you remove that then more people will choose something other than Windows.
It is absolutely retarded, even worse than a $600 console launch without any games, for them to sacrifice any OS/Office share to because of their little hobby of the console. Back when I did the math, for every 1% of OS/Office loss, the EDD will need to increase its profits by 40%. Somehow I doubt making games exclusive will ever be able to make up the loss caused due to losses in the OS/Office department.
