See? Even Microsoft is realizing that the Mac is better for games than the PC!

Heh, it actually has more to do with the fact that PPC is a RISC processor, and will (most of the time) be much more efficient than a CISC processor (such as IA32 chips) for the things that games do. The XBox is just catching up to the rest of the gaming world. PPC chips have been used in every other system since the dawn of time (All Nintendo products starting with the NES, PS 1[I think] & 2, and I am pretty sure the Sega systems as well).
