    Hey everyone,
    I saw that someone had developed a fix for the no 256bit driver support in recent OS X updates which should allow Diablo 2 and Starcraft to work properly again. The fix is here http://www.karlkfi.com/archives/2008/07/mac-os-10531054-nvidia-256-colors.html I was wondering if someone with a SR MBP and a backup could try it out and test it. I would test it but unfortunately I am in China for 3 months and did not bring my backup drive with me.

    Thanks to any brave souls
