So far I have built my guy to 25 laff, raced on all three circuits, gardened, bought a doodle, played with canons, fished, and run to all of the PGs and everything is exactly the same.

The only difference (so far) is the login procedure. You are required to login from a seperate window than your browser. This is kind of odd because after you enter your password the login window disappears and it takes a moment before the page with all of your toons on it appears.

I have not been to any of the bos battles yet as neither of my test accounts have toons big enough to do it. But I am curious...if anyone knows...what button you press to throw pies in the VP and CJ. The standard Mac keyboard does not come with an 'insert' key. So what do we press? And if this is the case, that we press a different button, does the trapped toon tell us to hit that button instead of the 'insert' key.

Another thing I am trying to get used to is the fact that the keyboard on a mac laptop only has one CTRL key and it is on the opposite side of the keyboard than the arrow keys. This means i have to run and jump with two hands and i am not used to that at all. I usually play with my left hand on the arrows and my pinky on the ctrl key.

I haven't noticed a connection problem or speed differences. However there is no lag at all so far, even when i select speedchat phrases, and the glitches in the factory warehouse don't seem to work yet.

That depends on what is inside the mac and the drivers that the card is using, its nothing to do with the operating system as both toontown for pc and toontown for mac run off python.

the game is pretty much the same i think...

Ya its identical. There were issues with the sound at first but they fixed those.

The only thing that is annoying is the login sequence. When you enter your name and password the login window disappears for about 30 seconds then the connection screen appears. Its hard to tell if anything is going on.

Back in the early days of toontown windows during the beta and the sneek peek, you logged into Toontown right in the program, rather than the web browser. (I know, I tried toontown for 5 days during the sneek peek, but didn't become a full member till 2 years later.) They changed to loging into the web browser for the windows version when they changed the look of the web site after the sneek peek so that you can log in to change account settings, then you didn't have to log in again to play in the same session.

The disadvantage to the change was that I could no longer update toontown without having to subscribe, and that the free trials back then started after download was complete and now they start before the download.
