can i play the lord of the rings online on my macintosh?

there are no plans at this time to make a macintosh compatible version of lotro.
guess you need to play via parallels/fusion or bootcamp
 
It's also fully playable, in Mac OSX, with Crossover games without having to use bootcamp or have windows. There may be also wine-wrappers for it as well, for free. All I know is that LOTR online has been fully supported by various programs that can run some windows games in Mac OSX without windows. I've tried it with Crossover games, and it works perfectly there.
