Hello MacRumoreans,
I want to purchase a new notebook. I'm still a proud owner of a PowerBook Pro. Though this is a Mac Forum i'm sure you people are critic enought to advise me putting facts above religion and beliefs.
My needs:
* Portability.
* Must Run Windows (.NET Developer).
* Must have somewhat good spec for games.
I've been comparing the MacBook Pro with another pc notebooks and i must say that the big mac turn down is the graphic card.
Does any1 know how the x1600 mobility on MacBook Pro 15" or 17" compare with Nvidia 7600,7800,7900 GO cards? Does any1 have two systems that can compare both with benchmarking software?
Any advices? Should i worry about that or not? It's still a rather expensive computer and i feel we're giving money for the possibility of running OS X rather than on specs.
Thank you.
