    Hello there!

    I am thinking to buy Macbook Pro, still dont know which one. I would like to play Secondlife on it. System requirements dont list none of settings I am seeing on apple site. So, I need help with this issue.

    New Macbook Pro retina will play Secondlife? If yes, what are the needed features?

    Only retina will works?

    Thank you very much in advance!

    No, you do not need the retina macbook. You should be able to run it on any of the current macbooks.

    Lol secondlife.


    It's not very graphics intensive more CPU bound from what ive seen before. Anything above a 620m with an i5 should run it.

    The dualcore i7 13 inch will run it well.
