Dates and order of events may be off, only played on EQMac for one afternoon via the Windows interface because the Luclin/PoP changes made me barf.
- EQMac only ran on Macs forever.
- EQMac became Free to Play.
- Sony said they were going to shut it down back in 2012.
- Dedicated EQMac fanbase cried out for relief.
- Someone released a program to enable EQMac on Windows boxes.
- Soon followed a large cross-section of P99 players and other players to EQMac via the new Windows interface work around.
- A group of players using the Windows work around did the progression then woke the Sleeper. The Sleeper was special on EQMac, they had managed to work together and not wake it for over 10 years.
- The only dev working on EQMac put the sleeper back to bed.
- Back in late 2013 Sony finally killed EQMac.
