itsn't EVE just a point and click screen-saver?

Well let's see how long it takes them. Maybe by 2008?

QUOTE “We’ve thought that EVE would be good for the Mac because it fits kind of within the Mac style,” said Bergsson. “It’s got a different style to other MMO’s.”

Hm... does not make much sense. What kind of reasoning is that? What is "the Mac style" and how is this game matching that?

translation:

"We've seen other Mac-compatible Space MMO's being developed, so now we're going to expand into that market segment and eat everyone else's lunch." ("Lunch" a.k.a. Vendetta-Online's Market Segment)

A few hints:
- point and click, any program that uses keyboards sucks
- classy pictures and all, look matters more than contents or performance
- indecent prices, a true mac-user is ready to pay more for the same stuff as a PC user (but no money into Bill's pocket, hah!).
The last one is the real lunch.

I won't get EVE, no way, no how. Although what Sun Tzu says is correct... at least mostly.
