Any core devs interested in a mac mini for testing?

[desperate_wiimote_mac_guy]

Hey all,

On a recent Reddit thread I asked about getting Wiimotes to work on OS 10.8 and Delroth said that none of the main Dolphin devs own a Mac for testing. If anyone would like a late 2009 mini to help troubleshoot bluetooth connection issues, I'd be happy to mail you one. It's not much of a gaming machine, but it'll be a great media center and can definitely run 1x internal resolution games without AA.

If you're interested, PM me your address and a link to some commits that show you can work on mac bluetooth issues.

Apologies if this isn't an appropriate thread or if you feel like it's an obnoxious burden! (the computer is still worth around $250, has HDMI capable of sending sound, etc) Thanks! I love Dolphin!

Two things here:

Either you confused Reddit with this forum (as a conversation like that happened here a few days ago), or you asked for support in a really dumb place, as whenever I've searched, I've not seen any mention of this emulator even in a comment in two years.

You should learn to use Reddit then.

Threads, Y U No appear when I searched Dolphin Emulator in the search box?

How come you have link Karma when I posted something actually slightly resembling funny to r/funny and got not only no up/down votes, but no views (according to a counter somewhere on quickmeme)? I only have comment karma from saying to someone that smelling gas when stood near the exhaust vent of a boiler is normal, but not a good habit to get into.

So the giveaway imac (late 2009) will belong to ...

If no real devs want this machine, then I'll happily add a single comment to dolphin's source code in order to be a kinda dev, thus able to claim it.

I'd take it if it's affected by the light issue, which has been plaguing some OS X users for ages. But then again, a) it would take me ages to find some time to fix the issue (if it can be fixed at all) b) it's unrelated to the OP's motivation for this thread c) I'm afraid the shipping costs to Germany would be ridiculously high.
