Hi, first post here. I know the subject might not warrant a new thread, but being my first one here I wanted to just say hello, and how much I like my new Macbook. It seems OSX is far more customizable than XP, and more stable to boot. (pun intended)
Ive used XP, ME, 98 for, well, 8 years now, and I have built/serviced several dozen PC's. I can say, without a doubt, this is the best computer I have ever owned.
Anyways, I just wanted to share that the Apple Remote can be used for other things. Here are some links for the code writers here: (of which, I am not)

Of course, there are apps that interface with certain proggys already;

Here, finaly, is the crux of my thread:
Porting one of these applications to interface with a game should work just fine. Of course you could always go out and buy a wireless BT/USB controller, but that would ruin the fun, 'eh?
BTW, im not a forum noob, and I did do a search.
peace
