o/,

I've recently realized that my old iMac from 07 just isn't cutting it for this game anymore (it runs this game on bare minimum graphics), so i've looked into getting a new laptop (as I am also entering college this coming fall I need one) that can run eve on more then just minimal graphics. The 13 inch 2.5 GHz macbook with the retina display is what I'm thinking of at the moment (Intel HD 4000 Graphics card). Can it run eve well? I'm trying to really bridge the gap between a computer for college while also getting one that will be able to run the games i am looking to play. I only run one client (not dual boxing or anything). Thank you in advance!

I have the MBP 13 inch i5 2.5ghz with 8gb ram and intel HD 4000 graphics.

Runs eve fine for me not tried over 2 clients. Although in bootcamp on windows 7 the graphics glitch. Occasionally I do wish for a bigger screen though, but to be fair it runs any game I want and allows me to study/play on the move.

Can't ask for much more.
