POKERSTARS LAUNCHES APPLE SOFTWARE
Online poker giant offers beta version for Mac clients
The Internet's biggest poker website, PokerStars.com has just released a beta Apple version of its gambling software that will be welcomed by the thousands of Macintosh users who traditionally have strong loyalty ties to their operating system of choice.
The release follows months of play-money testing, and the initial reaction of Mac players to the advent of the real-money product has thus far been very positive. Obviating the need to use third-party Windows emulator products, the Mac version of PokerStars will be familiar to traditional Windows users, lacking only the Layout Manager and Preferred Seat features in its current beta format.
PokerStars has released the following recommended System Requirements for Macs:
Software: Mac OS X 10.4.10 or later
Hardware: Minimum system configuration:
PowerPC G4 or G5 or Intel Mac
512MB RAM
1024x768 screen resolution or higher
60MB free disk space
56k dial-up Internet connection
Recommended system configuration:
PowerPC G4 1Ghz or faster, PowerPC G5 or Intel Mac
1024MB RAM
1024x768 screen resolution or higher
100MB free disk space
128kbps or faster DSL or Cable Internet connection
