Boot camp is a program that can install windows on your mac.

The game is not compatible with Mac's OS

Okay i assumed it was something like that.

I think my mac is 15" does that mean i won't be able to play mk?

Also i'm guessing imma have to purchase a copy of windows 7 which is like 80£...

when you get bootcamp, you have to hold down the option button as your mac is coming on in order for you to access windows. I barely even use windows unless I have to use a program that doesn't run on mac. It's annoying having to switch between the two.

shit is unplayable online anyway. stop rewarding NRS laziness.
If you have a shitty connection then yea it's unplayable. My connection is straight up unplayable so I don't bother playing at home but when I play at my friend's house on his wired connection, it's playable but I mainly play people with good connections as well. Online is all most people have when they lack local scenes anyways.

The reason why I'm asking about the size of the monitor is because that the 17 inch version is usually a more powerful system. It has a dedicated video card (which I think is a Nvidia 650m) and some extra computer power in the processor.

This is something you want to know because if MKKE doesn't read that you have a certain amount of dedicated video memory, it doesn't run.

All other versions of the macbook use the processor for its graphics as well. Therrfe~ scratch that shit, think of it this way.

MKKE only runs with 1024 megabytes of Video memory.

With a video card you can have all 1024 (or more) all just for MK.

If you have the processor that acts as a video card, you'll only get part of that 1024mb, therefore the game will not run.

AND GUYS COME ON ITS 2013 JUST PIRATE WIN 7, IT'L WORK JUST FINE

My SSF4 plays just fine and xbox live MK9 is decent.
