Aspyr Media, Inc. announced today that id Software's critically acclaimed blockbuster hit, DOOM 3(TM) for Macintosh is charging onto retail shelves everywhere by March 19, 2005.

Hey nothing wrong with that I am glad that someone is actually making something for the mac platform the more competition in the market the more fairly priced the market will be...

But I will tell you imho apple is over priced already hrmmm... well either way apple could use the support from software companies and so forth as it hardly has much of nothing in comparison to the microsoft market.

I'd really like to see some more linux support as well though theres a lot out there for linux there is still some driver issues with hardware devices and such.

And I'd like to see more right click intergration as well as shortcuts intergrated better into linux GUI's...
