Macs have a single digit market share globally, so even if people started installing games on them the needle wouldn't move much.

But I also have had it installed via Crossover at some points to check out a Windows-only game.
Which I just realize also skews the statistic because Crossover basically creates a Windows VM.
Steam needs a statistic for Wine/crossover. I play tons of games on my mac via steam through crossover. It's crazy that multiple layers of translation work so well.
