Thank you for this video! I saw this awesome game available on the app store and was wondering whether it would run on my macbook. I'm actually surprised it can run on settings high
This card good enough for AVCHD video editing in Final Cut Pro? I see the 11inch Macbook Air now has the option of a 1.8ghz Core i7 (8mb smart cache I think) with this graphics card (Intel 3000) and if it can do the job then happy days :)
@simon44 I have this same Macbook pro with the same specs. I think it should be ok. I don't use Final Cut Pro but I edit my videos using iMovie. I also use a Canon HF30 for home vids.
As someone who's PC can't play a 3 minute youtube video without having a total fit... this looks awesome... can't wait to get mine.....4 days and counting... :D
my 2009 non-unibody macbook will run this on medium-high settings just fine, love this game! i was really disappointed that this generation macbook didnt get a better graphics card, its actually slightly worse than the previous gen, and the macbook air 11" has a great resolution than this, if it wasnt for those 2 things i would buy one. glad they got sandy bridge CPUs, apple is normally one generation behind when it comes to CPUs
I have a ported version of the game on the same macbook, but it runs not smoothly… :(

@gregdobs did you run this using bootcamp? Because every time I check steam, borderlands is only for Windows. ;(

Okay, so what happens when you reduce the graphics quality to, say, medium. Do the FPS improve by much? Great vid btw

Are you running Borderlands through steam?, because on steam it only shows the "windows" sign I don't see the "windows + mac" on it.
