In its newsletter, Aspyr spoke about Boot Camp and it's possible impact on the development of games for the Mac OS.
Their opinion is in opposition to the majority of skeptics. Here is an excerpt:
Many have asked us here at Aspyr about the recent Boot Camp announcement and its impact on Mac gaming and our company. Our stance is pretty simple and comes from experience: The more hardware Apple sells, the more Mac games we will sell. Apple's recently announced OS feature, Boot Camp, is sure to sell more machines. After 10 years of developing games for the Macintosh we've learned that things change, industries evolve and that we must anticipate it and grow. We consider our ability to be quick and nimble a competitive advantage. These changes are the kinds of things we crave because it means things are getting better for the consumer. After all, when was the last time you heard people talk this much about Mac gaming?
They also announced that there will soon be a multiprocessor patch for Quake 4 which should bring a 20% to 40% increase in FPS for MacIntels.
