Seriously, MC is the only reason why I still run Windows/Parallels on Mac.

I thought I'd mention...
If you're using MC on your Mac through Boot Camp, Apple released a new version of Boot Camp Beta recently (v1.2), which fixes some issues and adds a bunch of new features. One of these new features is support for the Apple Remote (which comes with a bunch of their computers now). Apple reports:

Well, I just tested it and it works perfectly well with MC too!! The Menu button doesn't do anything, but all the rest work as you'd expect (and I doubt that the Menu button works for WiMP either).
My MacBook Pro has otherwise been a bit more stable since updating the Boot Camp drivers. Specifically, an issue where my laptop completely hard-locks on login occasionally (I believe a result of the ATI Graphics drivers crashing and burning) has not returned thus far. That, and the trackpad seems quite a bit more reliable (I had instances previously where my trackpad would go "wiggy" and not allow me to control the computer at all until I rebooted).

A small update from my own experiences with MC in Linux (MDK2007) :)
Cedega- In theory, this should work better than Crossover, as its designed for D3D & games. No such luck- The installer crashes with a memory error, and nothing works full-stop.
WINE- MC installs nicely, but crashes on launch (Shows the splash, & then MC crashes). I think this is something to do with the Windows media components; The current versions of WINE really don't like these.
Crossover- MC installs & runs, but doesn't play anything. I'm not sure why this is- Others seem to have had sucess in getting it to do something, but it simply fails to play anything.
