If you live in the United States then you are no stranger to the rivalry between Microsoft and Apple. After many years – a thought came to mind: do Mac users, today, have the choice to play on online casinos?
Truth be told, a few years ago, Mac users did not have this option. However, how about today in this day and age? It has been a while since we have received queries from online gamblers asking about online casinos currently available for Apple. Thus, we decided to look in to the matter.Using our list of the best online casinos, we started our search for the most suitable online casinos for Mac OS. However we found that most online casinos do not even list the type of operating system required in order to download, install and play the casino software. So we contacted the customer services of the online casinos only to discover that there is no online casino compatible for the Mac OS. The Mainstreet group online casinos, such as Vegas Casino Online told us that in order to use the software on the Mac, the gambler would have to select the Flash only version.
There was one online casino, Slotocash, which mentioned the possibility of providing Mac compatible gambling software in the future. However, it is doubted that they will proceed with the matter. The only online casino that mentions the operating system required was the Golden Casino, regardless if it required Windows 95.
For the US players, online casinos are using three current successful internet gambling developers for the US players: RTG, RIVAL and Vegas Tech. Apple holds a 15% share of the personal computing market in the USA and a 3% to 5% share in non USA market thus it is unlikely to see an online casino compatible for Mac abroad before we see one developed for US gamblers.
Finally it seems for the time being, Mac users do not have the ability to enjoy the pleasures of online gambling.
