Hey all!

Maybe somebody can answer this. How well does Tales of Monkey Island run on a Mac Mini (fall 2009 ed.) 2.53GHz? I saw in the requirements that TMI isn't recommended for onboard video cards, but I didn't know if that meant it wouldn't run or run really crappy.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Do you know what type of video card is in it?

pahootaman · 03/30/2010, 03:01 pm

I should of mentioned that. Geforce 9400m. It's the same video card in all macbooks and the lower end iMacs.

Ah, yeah, then you should probably be fine. But if you are curious, you can download the demo for the first episode and see how it runs.

I'm on an old G5 at the moment. The answer to the question will help me decide if I'm fine with the mini or if I should shell out for an iMac.

knowing that TMI works on the mini helps me a lot in the decision process. Thanks!

Mind if I toss another Mac issue in here?

I'm running 10.4. Can I use the $30 DVD upgrade installer to upgrade to 10.6? Will I keep all my programs?
