Razer Pledges Support to Mac Gamers
Razer hops on the recent "Games for Mac" craze started by Valve's plans for Steam and Source on Apple computers.
No doubt spurred on by the commitment that Valve software pledged to the Mac with confirmation that Steam and Source Engine games, Razer today affirmed its support for Apple's computer platform.
The announcement by Razer was made at the Game Developers Conference, where the company pledged an effort to increase support for Mac users by issuing driver support for all upcoming products, including the Razer StarCraft II peripheral suite.
"I’m very proud to say that at Razer, we are committed to supporting both Mac and PC gamers," said Robert Krakoff, president, Razer USA. "We are constantly working to increase driver support for Mac with our existing Razer products and have plans to release all of our new products with dedicated Mac and PC drivers. This is a really exciting opportunity to expand the gaming industry and make it more inclusive for Mac users by providing the same level of support that we give to our PC users."
Mac gamers can now pick from several Razer options, such as the Naga, for MMO gaming, as well as the DeathAdder, right-handed gamers. Razer said that it is now working on releasing drivers to equip existing products with Mac compatibility.

no offence.. but if you game on a mac, you are NOT a gamer.
plus "Mac Gamers" doesn't even sound right.
although who knows.. one day...
Razer support is by far the worst I have ever had the misfortune to come across. Good luck to mac users. I would NEVER buy another Razer product. Ever.
Mouse with keypad? Are you nuts? Haven't experiments like Atari Jaguar taught you that keypads on game controllers are NOT a good idea.

I'm sorry but you have to get a thumbs down for that, I'm not a fan of mac haters at all, sure the apple philosophy, as Rab1d puts it, is all wrong, but why flame an entire comunity for the OS that they use? and just so you know, I'm a windows user, have been since 3.1 I'm just not scared of trying something different.

If you are paying a fortune just to get a 4850 on a desktop, plus since most big title games do not have mac support, it would be wrong to deny xbeater's claim...
Mac Users are not gamers.
When will Razer support the PC peripherals they produce? I had the misfortune to buy a N52Te last year and it didnt work properly on vista.. Now ive moved to Windows 7 it doesnt work at all.
I know they make good devices like mice etc.. But i stopped buying creative labs stuff for the same reason.. support = shocking
Macs Aernt gaming rigs. get over it. Razer; spend some more time and resources on support not "Mac Gamers".
