dont expect to do much gaming with a notebook....especially a mac
That's not true......
Moral of the story: do some research before bashing an entire line of excellent computers.
For one, most laptops arent meant for gaming. Even the gaming ones (xps, voodoo's, falcons ect...) score lower than their desktop counterparts. Theyre still insanely fast and could destroy most desktops, but theyre not quite as fast as the desktop versions.
And no mac's are not amazing for gaming. My unlcles graphics design company has 5 powermac G5's and I use them occasionally(with the 23" displays, 2 dual core cpu's, and 5 gigs of ram). Theyre incredible for 3d design, rendering, drafting, video/music production, but not too impressive for gaming. If I were paying $2500 for a gaming computer, I would expect much more than 70 fps on all games. I'm not saying they suck, theyre extremely powerful machines, gaming is just not their strong point.
