| So I've been wanting to play some PS1 games lately, but I can't seem to set up the emulator correctly on my Mac. Could anybody help me with this? |

| None work
If you have a intel mac you can try running Wine
Or maybe Boot Camp
Maybe pick up a cheap PC laptop (Like I'm planning for gaming) |

| Here are your options...
1.) Get a Windows Emulator and run ePSXe off of that.
2.) Buy a cheap refurbished Laptop with Windows OS installed off eBay.
3.) Buy a modded PSone that can read burned discs.
4.) If you own a PSP you could install Custom Firmware & Popsloader. |

| Wine + pSX works well (if you like I'll make a standalone app bundle). |

| Hey Seph that'd be great. What else would I need to do (like bios and stuff) to get it to work? |

| I'll put Wine and a BIOS in - it should just be click & run.
You might need X11.app off the Mac OS Install DVD to use it though (in optional installs).
*uploading to Dropbox now* |

| Here you go: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3258594/pSX.dmg
If it's running too fast you'll need to go into Configuration and uncheck both 'Vsync' boxes under the Graphics tab. |
