Just curious. What is the processor speed, is it a laptop or desktop, how much memory, display resolution, and Intel or PPC.

Hehe.  And yourself?

I have an 20 inch iMac G5 2 GHz with 2 GB RAM.  1680x1050 res.

Hi, Vern!
Long time no see!

I have a G4 MDD, it's a PPC, 1,25 GHz, 1,75 Gb RAM, 20" Cinema monitor using 1280x800 resolution (my eyes don't like higher resolution). I am playing MM in a window instead of full screen
[smiley=vrolijk_26.gif]

Hi, Vern.

Mine is a Power Mac G5 Dual 2 GHz (non-Intel), with 2.5 GB RAM and an old-school 19" Formac monitor, using normally a 1280 x 960 @ 75 Hz resolution, which gets switched when playing MM to 640 x 380 @ 95 Hz.

Hey Vern - I'm also on an iMac G5, but mine is only 17" which is enough... 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 1GB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM, 1440x900 resolution.  

I play full-screen for the FULL effect - it's just me & Jack on an adventure!  ::)

Mine is a PPC iMac G5 with 1.8 GHz processor speed, 768 MB RAM, 20-inch display with resolution set at 1680 x 1050.

Macbook Pro 15"
2.16 GHz Intel Core Duo
1.GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM

Which is it suztours?  A G5 or an Intel?   8-)

humm - well, when I asked, I was told it was a G5, but it has the Intel DuoCore processor, so I guess I got all the specs confused...  sorry.  I'm not reading nor writing very well just now - cut my hand on some steel (ouch) and running with lots of tourists here to guide!

OK.  If it has the Intel processor then it cannot be G5 since the "G" line was the PowerPC processor line and is discontinued since the beginning of 2006 (or 2007, I forget).

Macbook Intel 2 Duo Core, 2.14 GHz, 1GB Ram, 64MB VRAM, 13" screen. Nothing to be bragging about, but it works.

I play MM on a G4, 1GHz, 1GB RAM, 19" monitor set to 1280x1024.

Like Rose, I'm on a G4 MDD Windtunnel, PPC, dual 1.25 GHz, 1.75g RAM, 23" Cinema Display full screen at 1344 x 1200 (or 19"CRT at 1024 x 768), OSX 10.3.9 (though MM plays fine on 9.2.2 also.) A few times MM has frozen and required a total reboot, but one of my drives has had accessing/directory issues so maybe that's the problem. Also have a Mac Mini 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo with 1g RAM running Leopard and MM seems to work fine, but since my saves are all on the G4 I usually play on that one.

With some delay ...

A 1,8 GHz PowerPC G5 with 1 GB DDR SDRAM and mac version 10.5.4.

That is far too slowly to reply on all posts and emails! ;) ;D

I have this one.

and I play MM on any mac I can lay hands on... currently dual G5 1.8GHz with 3GB RAM [MM runs quite flawless :)] and a macbook 13" 2.2GHz

I need to buy more RAM

I now have more RAM. 1.5 GB to be precise. Yay!

Hey Guys,

What is Ram?  and Do I have enough of it?  see above post for details.

RAM is Random Access Memory.  You have 1 GB, 2 is better.

Thanks Brell,

but does that affect game playing?

If one does not save to many things.....is 2 necessary?

so far, I haven't noticed that I missing anything......I think.

Are you happy with your computer's speed?

If yes, don't buy more RAM

Missy - It kinda depends on how many applications you run at the same time, and whether they are memory hungry applications like an Adobe application or ProTools etc. But MM is a winky tiny application so I wouldn't worry about it.

The only thing I have noticed with MM since my upgrade is that choosing a saved mansion doesn't take as long. My rainbow wheel would whirr for about ten seconds before I upgraded. ::) But that was my fault for not upgrading my RAM straight away when I went from 10.4 to 10.5. Bad Mac user!!! :D

Thanks Lara,

Then no, I do not have a problem, my downloads are as quick as a blink of an eye in most cases.  

Since I am pretty green at using the computer, I guess I have enough of what ever it has.  

Thank you again.

With computers especially, the old saying is really good advice...

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
