THANK YOU!!!

I've been looking for answers!

I'm thinking about getting a new MacBook (and by thinking, I mean I just need the money to pay for it xD) and I want to play Spore.

My current computer is about 3 years old, and a Dell Dimension model... it's not very sufficient for Spore, and plus, I've got college coming up.

Is the MacBook really "All that and a bag of chips"? It seems from my research that it is!

[dborup]

it is :D

hello could you tell me, is spore really playable? i am thinking about either getting this, or the previous gen macbook pro, as i dont have 2000 to blow on a notebook.

[dborup]

get the new Macbook, its like the new macbook pro just smaller screen and a GFX you dont need

[sorathekey555]

but why you play Spore via Bootcamp???

[Simgiov]

this is the ultimate mac gaming notebook! the pro costs too much

[vancar6]

is this on high settings?

Any help would be greatly appreciated since im growing totally mental over this...... its about time apple steps in and does somthing about this....

Hey, i also run vista through boot camp on my 2.4ghz 2gb ddr3 unibody, i have many problems, like my browser crashes while viewing flash content (ex. youtube etc.) if i use the trackpad when the vids are playing, vlc hangs with videos and mp3s in the same fashion, and if i want to play counterstrike source, i need to use an external mous and then eventually it still ruins my gaming since the keyboard starts lagging and slowing down...obviously driver issues. has this happened to any one else?

[allstrak]

can you give me more specs? on my channel or so than i can say why mayby

[PSPwizx]

i have the 2.26ghz macbook and i just installed this with Crossover, and it doesnt start! it says the graphics specs dont meet min requirements. BUT I DO!!

HELP!! MEE!!1

hey yours seems pretty smooth, i played it on my macbook unibody 2.4 4GB ram it kinda lags when u get to the spaceship part, im playing it on mac, not windows, any ideas?

[matt9339]

i love my 2.4 macbook. with the 2.4 you obviously get a slightly faster processor, bigger hard drive i believe and also an illuminated keyboard (which i love now i have it, it makes the keys really stand out. its hard to explain and in the dark its obviously excellent)

hey dude im getting a used macbook, but I will only have 1300 by the end of summer. My question is wether i should get the 2.4 ghz or the 2.0 with apple care, do you think the 2.4 would be worth the lack of protection. (and im using it mostly for gaming and such) ; )

well, actually, no, the mac version is a good emulation of the windows spore, which runs fine, but as i said, it's emulating windows to do it. So i hope they will update the mac version now, to the real mac version, so i can play with some more eye candy, and see creatures smaller than trees
