Sex sells, doesn't it? Well, it might, but does it make a good poker room? Playboy Gaming seems to think so, and decided to mix the idea of sex with poker; a great combination!
The PlayboyPokerInstall.exe (Playboy Poker Download) file is less than 1 MB in size, which basically just instantly completes. However, once you run the wizard it downloads the rest of the software from the website, which can take a few minutes. Just be sure to still be connected to the internet when installing. Unfortunately, if you are located in the US you will not have access to the Playboy Poker Download as they stopped taking US customers late in 2006. The software and support is currently only available in English only.
I emailed their excellent support staff regarding the question of minimum download requirements for Mac users and here is what they said:
“In response to your query regarding downloading our software on a Mac PC, please follow the instructions below on how to install Windows XP or Vista on your Mac in order to enable you to download our software.
For Mac OS X 10.5 You can install Windows XP or Windows Vista on your Macintosh using Boot Camp Assistant, located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder.
Note: If you have already installed Boot Camp on your Mac and want to upgrade Windows, you do not need to reinstall Boot Camp.
To install and set up Windows on your Mac, you will need: An Intel-based Mac computer, with the latest firmware updates installed.
A USB keyboard and mouse, or a built-in keyboard and trackpad and Mac OS X version 10.5 or later (the latest version of Mac OS X is strongly recommended)
At least 10 GB of free space on the disk you are installing on and a licensed copy of Windows XP Home Edition or Professional, or Windows Vista Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, or Ultimate
Important: You must use a single full-install Windows installation disc. Service pack 2 is required for Windows XP installations. Do not install an earlier version of Windows XP and attempt to update it later to service pack 2. Use only 32-bit versions of Windows.
To install Windows on your Mac:
Back up the important information on your computer then:
Open Boot Camp Assistant (located in the Utilities folder in the Applications folder).
Print and follow the instructions in the “Boot Camp Installation & Setup Guide.”
In order to install Windows using Boot Camp, you must be logged in as an administrator.
Should Windows be already installed on your Mac you can simply access it using the Boot Camp.
Please also note that if you have a new Apple Mac, you can install a program called parallel which enables you to run windows from the Mac side instead of splitting the hard drive.
Please also note that you can find additional information on this and other subjects at the Mac Support website at: http://www.apple.com/support/.”
