I have a eMac 10.4.11 I have 768 MB my Processor is 1.25 GHz PowerPC G4. I'll post more info on my comp later but I have to go to bed now.:Sleeping:


P.S. I'm asking because I downloaded the demo(from macgamefiles.com) onto my computer and it said when I tried to start up the game that it didn't run on my system

Unfortunately, it won't run on PPC architecture.. It's mean for Intel-only.

The only way to fix this is to buy a newer Mac. It sucks, I know, I'm in the same boat. :(
