now, the premises:
-
I have a windows pc
-
I also have a pc version of QW, with which I created my account
-
Now I’m buying a macbook pro, on which I’d like to play QW without resorting to bootcamp (ie: I need a mac version of the game)
-
I’d like to use my old account to play onto the macbook
-
I also would like to purchase another license of the game, to be able to play with my brother (he’d ble playing with the new account on the windows pc - for which I already have the QW client - and I’d be playing on my macbook using my old account)
now, what I wanted to know is:
If I buy a mac version of QW, will I be able to log onto it with my old account from the pc version…?
and more important, would my brother be able to create a new account to be used with the pc version, using the mac version’s code…?
thinking of it, I could always create the new account on the mac, and just switch logins after activation, but I still need to know if something like this is possible…
the alternatives I’ve thought about aren’t as simple, I could also “provide” myself a copy of the mac QW client and logging on to it with the old account, and just buy a new one for the pc, but I’d rather do things cleanly…
oh, btw: yes, I’m kinda attached to my old account and gamertag, so I’d use a new account for myself as a last resort only… 
anyone who can lend me a hand will be most appreciated, TIA for any help then…
