.. yesterday i checked out what a mac pro costs.. arrgh;)



Although Mac Pro's and Mac Book Pro's are excellent machines, they are not necessary to run Unity.

I am using a last generation Intel iMac, which can still be found for around $1000, and it runs great. Beware with the new generation of iMacs, though. The $1199 model ships with only 128MB of video RAM. For advice on which Mac to purchase, ask on the Unity forum. The folks there are very friendly.

Also, Macs are now excellent Windows machines with either Bootcamp (dual boot) or VMWare. I don't recommend Parallels with a Mac Book Pro. I never got it to run and I found many posts online from users with similar issues.
