(Linux preferred, since you can use Damn Small Linux which is a mere 64MB (minimum) and not have to install a 2GB Windows installation.) But, I think it'll get to Macs. The problem is an OS issue, not a hardware issue, so definitely some time not far. (I don't think they're not going to build a solution for the Mac community in SL. It would get them bad publicity and will cause anger. Well, technically you can just use a Linux or Windows partition on a Mac to run.

And addition: I got a new GPU: Nvidia Geforce 8600 with 1GB VRAM, so now, I can use the shadow draft! YAY! :-D Correction: It’s impossible on OS X, Katharine was using Windows emulation.
