I tried Albatross18 on my new 2.4 GHz Apple iMac via Parallels, and it’s painfully slow. It really doesn’t support 3D acceleration. However, I’m writing this post in Firefox under Windows XP under Parallels now, and that works fine. 2D games, such as StarCraft, are also fine. It’s just 3D games that simply do not work. They run, but extremely slow. Trust me when I say they’re slow. Albatross18 was unusably slow, even though it runs fine on my slower Lenovo laptop. You need Windows running natively, or at least a virtualized 3D graphics card, in order to play it.
