Seriously dont buy a new computer with Vista. Unless your buying it from a person and not a retailer that would be the only exception.

Just wanted to mention this. The reason why the full copy and paste of the system information/specs didnt show is because (Im guessing) that after Genuine Windows Vista, there is a trademark symbol. All text after certain symbols (on these forums) are disregarded.

b:cute Play on a MacBook Pro, thats what I used to play on until my mom broke it (literally, she broke it in half, then smashed them to pieces to demonstrate she was serious about everyone in my family off computers by 9pm b:shocked)

Rofl it takes time to get used to though since the downloading part gets interestingly weird but its good b:cute

Plus then you get Garageband b:chuckle

Ok you didnt need all that advertising...
But those specs are OK, for PWI. It wont play COD:Modern warfare 2 but its decent. Except for the fact that its vista.. Either get windows 7 or get XP.

Mac arent really that brilliant for gaming =S, and theres no Perfect world for Mac either. So dont get it. Apparently theyre good for editing sound/photoshop but thats kinda stupid cause the only good editing software doesnt come free with the computer.

If youre really serious just build your own computer. I saw someone who watercooled their computer. (Yeah it still works, they used pipes or something)

Or..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PtufuXLvOok
This guy fully filled up his PC with oil to cool it.

You have to install a Windows operating system (OS) on your mac, youtube has some great tutorials on how to do it.
