What you're seeing here is what Stephanie refers to as "Nerd Olympics". For the record, she used to say Magic Tournaments were the same thing. What you're actually seeing is a LAN Party. A bunch of truly geeky guys get together, hook up their computers, and play games all night. The game in question was Call of Duty 2. I haven't played it since the last LAN party I attended, so I was a little rusty. These guys started around noon and we finished around 1 AM. Hardcore, right? Due to my crazy sleep schedule, I was only able to get there after 6, but it was still fun. I also brought along my Xbox 360. Eric, the host, just purchased an awesome new 50' LED projection television, and wanted to see the stunning Gears of War in HD. Needless to say, everyone was blown away. It was a good time.

The dude in the middle is playing on a Mac keyboard... but is he playing on a Mac?
Yes! He was indeed playing on a Mac. Call of Duty 2 is now out for Mac, and we had absolutely no trouble networking with it.
