Games galore...

First of all, don't expect to play World Of Warcraft on the Mini. But there are a lot of other non-resource hungry games out there. Some are commercial and some are free.

First one is Blizzards StarCraft. You most likely have heard of StarCraft before, or even played it. Well, SC is available for the Mac, and will run fine on MacOSX. But, if you already own SC, check the CD jewelcase if it reads PowerPC compatible. If it doesn't then you are out of luck. You need to most likely buy a new version for your Mac if you would like to play Starcraft. I am one of the unfortunate ones, I own the older version of Starcraft which is PC only. I've been in contact with Blizzard, asking them if I can trade my old copy for a Mac compatible, but I seriously doubt that I will be allowed to do so.

The second game I enjoy playin on the my Mini is a freeware Tetris clone called Quinn. A great game indeed. I doubt the game Tetris need much of an introduction, and neither does Quinn. But if you have never heard of Tetris, then it is a block-falling-puzzle-game. Great to play, fun and at higher levels darn right difficult.

My third choice so far, is Sudoku over at Miniclip.com. A great mindbender for you to try out.

I will dig deeper into games on the Mac that you can play on a Mini. But for now I suggest you download Quinn and go for a Tetris puzzle.
