Hey guys my easycap will only work to its fullest on a PC.
So i tried bootcamp but it resulted in me finding out how bad and old my computer is.
So basically im gonna get a new laptop on my birthday (Oct. 2nd)
Itll be better for me, as i can hook a cap card to it, and it be mobile, so i dont have cords everywhere.
Also its more mobile and on the go.

Now, my family is a mac family, and i prefer macs too, and i most likely want to run bootcamp on this mac.
So what are some good ones, or maybe good pc's too?
Thanks


how much do you wanna spend?

the new macbooks are your best deal (if you can call apple's "deals" price-wise). They have real GPUs, for once, and a 2.54 Dual Core CPU w/ 2GB of RAM. full specs below. This computer isnt shabby by any means and by what you are asking for seems like the best deal with a possible RAM upgrade. These dont cost an arm and a leg if you dont go to apple.

Next bet would be the macbook pros obviously. they are more pricy but depending on what you get. you can obtain some of Intel's new i5 or i7 processors (have the i5 and it is wonderful) if you pay extra. This would be better if you wanna do some some-what serious gaming. so far i can run pretty much any game thrown at me at medium settings except bc2 (which i had to force to run at DirectX9). Full specs below.

Due to most laptops not having a video card (they can't do anything productive gaming wise) I'd suggest sticking with a macbooks because they're ok with gaming and since you're in a mac family.

my old laptop (MBP 2009) is the same specs as the new macbook and i could run pretty much any game cept pretty much bc2. other games i turned down the settings and i was good  :tu:
