Hi guys.
What Mac computers would you suggest to someone who wishes to develop games using Unity?
Well I think that question is more on how much you want to spend. Can unity run on a iBook? Sure. Will it run better on a powerbook? Yes. One thing that I will say from expirience is that working on a small screen is hell for a lot of this stuff, The more you can see the more conferatable and easyer to navigate every thing is. So I would say it’s up to your budget, but if it was me I would try to get the best because every thing will run faster be nicer, ect. But you have to find a balence between need and want. My want usually takes over but I think you get what I mean.

The realestate(screen size) listed above is always a big thing. The powerbook does have faster memory and a larger pipeline(if i remember correctly). So if you can afford a powerbook go for it. I personally have a PowerMac G4 (dual 1.0ghz 32-bit ppc chips on 23" Apple Cinema display, plastic bezel) and an iBookG4 (1 ghz 12" screen). The iBook only has 256mb of ram right now, but the 1GByte of ram shoudl be @ my house today. I’ll let ya know how large of a difference it makes.
If you can get tyhe G5 processor I would get that, however they don’t offer that in powerbooks:( which s.jobs isnt to happy about.
