Best Answer

You're very backwards with your questions. Windows 7 is currently the best gaming system, OSX is probably one of the least gaming-oriented operating systems, and buying a Mac for gaming is neither cheap or practical.

If you want to play the latest and greatest building your own gaming PC running Windows 7 will cost you about $800-$1200, buying a Mac will cost you about the same, but very few games will be compatible with it.

If you expect a mac to run your games, you're probably what stuck-up gamers would call a "casual gamer" in which case you can get a decent PC running Windows for about $300-$450 that'll play most games you'll need to play. A $300 pre-built PC will run just about any game I'd expect a Mac to.
