you graphics card is not drawing the entire scene. update your driver or get a new card. if you have a mac...get a pc macs are terrible for gaming and everything else. maybe the fan on your card is bad and the cpu is actually doing the graphics processing because the graphics card is getting too hot, thats also a possibility.

chek your drivers first though.

Not getting into the whole mac vs pc thing (but as a graphic designer/desktop publisher macs are a fact of life). Plus the operating systems are looking so much alike that in a few years there won't be any difference.

It's not an inherently Mac problem. I play on a mac mini. It keeps crashing on my Vista system and I can't be bothered to download the 3 or 4 windows patches to fix it.

I will say you need an intel mac. I tried playing on my laptop (a G4 iBook) and had to turn the graphics way down and it still lagged horribly.

It looks like more of a configuration/software problem rather than hardware. It also looked like you had your web browser open in the background. If it is a memory issue, you might want to close everything but pirates. Also check to make sure your game resolution is the same as your system resolution.
