Most online gambling sites have long ignored the Apple Mac user - but with poker seeping into most people's minds, many of the smart online poker websites are starting to offer their games to Mac users - and not just via Virtual PC

The Mac Observer has an excellent review feature of the best online poker sites for Mac users - both pure Mac sites and Virtual PC platforms

I've divided my look at all the major poker sites into those that support the Mac natively and those that are Windows-only, and I've included performance information for sites that require Virtual PC. My recommendations are based on Virtual PC 7.x, the fastest version of the software yet put out, used on a fast Mac. I've also played on most of these sites with Virtual PC 6 on a 1.2 GHz PowerBook, so that, too, can be done, though I don't recommend it.

Native Mac sites include Pokerroom, Coral Eurobet Poker and Pacific Poker. Whilst Party Poker and Full Tilt Poker can be played using Virtual PC

Meanwhile, over at Bodog.com, the more business-side of Apple's business is worthy of a small flutter.
In response to continuous rumours earlier this year, they're asking you to predict which would be the first Intel-based Apple to be released in 2006.
The Powerbook is the favourite at 2/1, but for those in it for the long shots, the Powermac is available at 13/2, whilst the ibook is at a tempting 3/1 for Apple to really compete with their PC counterparts
