[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 274003, member: 8287"] The very last iBook with a Radeon 9550 will not play 1080p video without missing so many frames the video is unwatchable. The Macbook and even Mini with the Intel GMA 950 plays it PERFECTALLY. To me that is a lot more important in a lower priced laptop than whether it will play Doom III at max resolution or not. The Intel Graphics in the Macbook is fine for most uses and people. It's a lot better than some think it is. If you want better, as has been said already, get the Macbook Pro. The only gaming laptops that will play the games I play on my PC are Expensive, Heavy and Hot. [/QUOTE]
