Not meaning to hijack (thought that is what I am doing) but mac equivalents of this would also be of interest to me.

No, no mac questions allowed in here! :)
Oh and to pre-empt any of you sarky gits linking the just fucking google it thing, there is a load of "free" ones, but they all fail to actually record anything before asking for money.(what is the point in giving me a free trial of everything in the software but the function I obtained it for?)

Another vote for Camtasia. Most excellent program.

What you do is boot the Mac into Windows and then load Camtasia. It's a great package and well worth the amount they charge for it.

I've tried other PC and Mac solutions and they were all a joke frankly. Camtasia is the mutts.

you could probably use logmein (or probably any other remote control software) to record a session.

I know you love PC gaming and all, but there's no need for that.
