[QUOTE="ki99, post: 714700, member: 31961"] you should be plenty fine with a macbook. [url]http://www.civfanatics.com/civ2/[/url] here is the system requirements for civ 2 (at the bottom), and a macbook is WAY more then you need for that. i have a 2.0GHz macbook with 1GB ram and i can watch dvds, and internet videos, and i play a lot of starcraft. and it works pretty great for all this. your linksys router will work fine. the speakers in the macbook are very poor IMO, and if you go this route, i would recommend purchasing external speakers to hook up. i would imagine you wouldn't really notice that big of a difference between 2.1, and 2.4Ghz, but if you want to watch a lot of movies, then it's probably best to go for the 2.4 as for RAM, the best idea is too order it with the minimum amount and then buy more from a third party. apple ram is very expensive. if you check crucial.com, you can find very good ram, and you can find any model of macbook and it tells you the max ram you can put in it that it will use. hope i answered most of your questions ;) [/QUOTE]
