How many do gaming on a Mac book pro with boot camp and how well does it work?

I am a gamer that likes lap tops and am wanting to get a Mac book pro as I hear Apples are just better.

I'm going to sound like a total fanboy, but Macs really are just better.





If you get a Macbook Pro and Boot Camp for gaming, you absolutely will not be disappointed. I've seen Boot Camp run Windows and Linux like a charm on Macbooks and iMacs, and the Macbook Pro will give you an extra push with its snazzy video card.





Good luck!
Reply:According to review sites the best machine for running Windows Vista right now for a laptop is the MAC. I am curious to see how it is at running games as well as that would be interesting.





However, keep in mind that the price will be steep, you are paying for two entire operating systems in addition to the hardware that you have. Also keep in mind from a gaming perspective that Video Cards are much more limited for a MAC so you will have much fewer high powered options in that regard. For a laptop this might be ok, but it really depends on the type of gaming you do and how "bleeding edge" you want/need to be. The video cards you can buy are nice GForce cards, but you can't get any of the quad core stuff and you can't get any non-GForce cards.





The card is very nice for a laptop card though.
