Where can I pick up a copy of JJ2 for Mac?

Hey all. I recently purchased a uberrux dual-core Mac Mini. Yay me. Anyway, I've been doing some searching, and I've no idea where to buy the Mac version of JJ2. No one feed me any "omg go download it" crap; I've never pirated JJ2 and don't plan to start after all these years.

Why don't you just emulate JJ2?

You can't just "emulate JJ2". You have to emulate Windows, and a Windows emulator on a Mac isn't cheap. You have to buy both a Windows license and an emulator, which can range anywhere from 200-400 dollars. Boot Camp also isn't a viable solution, because you have to go through the teedious process of installing and configuring Windows first, not to mention restarting each time you need to switch operating systems.

Yeah, I'm not interested in emulating JJ2 or in using Boot Camp. My Mac shall never be disgraced with XP.

Also, Violet, the site listed there for Mac JJ2 charges about $15.00 just for shipping - I'd rather find a somewhat more local store. ;p

You'll probably have to dig through bargain bins to find it in a store. Nobody's paying to put them on shelves.

Mono, by 'local' I kind of meant 'in the USA.'
