    hey guys , did a search and didnt see a thread about this.
    i just bought a new MBP (2.0) and it will be here monday 4/10/06. (ordered 4/5/06!!) and i play only a few games, but the biggest one would have to be WoW (world of warcraft) . now i only have the windows disks - the DVD version - will i be able to install this directly on the mac? or do i have to buy a new disk ? i heard that the new patch makes it universal binary - but i dont know if i can just intall the windows disks and have it update itself - or can i download the MAC version somewhere?

    and does anyone know how well it runs either in native MAC osX or in bootcamp? thanks in advance!

    i never had a mac before but saw my brother and law using it when he stayed and i loved it. and since he worked at apple i got the family discount =)
