Help first time buying and game issuses !!!

Hi i havent got a apple macbook pro yet but i am going to get one soon and when i do i just want to know that if i get it and put parallel desktop onto it so that i can run windows, then can i run this game with these specs:
REQUIRED SYSTEM SPECIFICATIONS:
· OS: Windows XP, Windows Vista (32-bit; 64-bit versions of
Windows Vista are not supported)
· CPU (Single Core): Intel P4 2.0 GHz or AMD Athlon 2000+ for
Windows XP / Intel P4 2.2 GHz or AMD Athlon 2200+ for Windows
Vista
· RAM: 512 MB for Windows XP / 1 GB for Windows Vista
· Disk Drive: 8X or faster DVD-ROM drive

If i have these then will i be able to play this game and hopefully more on the macbook pro or not.

Olivier,
The latest Parallels appears to have better 3-D support than it used to, so it might no longer matter. Check their website:
http://www.parallels.com/en/products/desktop/
With 3-D support there, and less risk of damaging your existing partition, and better Windows version support, I think it is preferable over Boot Camp, unless every ounce of performance is necessary. If you find it is still insufficient, well, you might want to see if there is a difference with Boot Camp.
Regardless, backup your data before installing either software as my FAQ* explains:

    First time buying on itunes and i forgot the answers to my secrete questions, any help

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then you can try going to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account. Then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address then see if the instructions on this user tip helps : https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4551

    its almost 10 months,i purchased ipad2 32 3G wifi.itinially i got problem with applications and safari shut off frequently now since last 4 months my ipad starts with a message (connect iTunes)like first time start and going to restore mode and it occurs frequently.plz advise.

    If you have followed the standard Apple troubleshooting processes (see user guide )
    probably a trip to the local Apple Store Genius bar is called for before warranty runs out
    Assuming the iPad has been released in your Country if not you may have to take it to a
    neighbouring Country where it is available
    This page will tell you ,via the drop down menu Countries that can support iPad

    HI, its my first time buying apple product from online, I'm from Sarawak, Malaysia, i would like to know what type of post/delivery service will be used to deliver the product i ordered to my house address.

    iPhones, iPads, iPods are dispatched from China.  Apple accessories are dispatched from Singapore.  The carrier is FedEx.
    Online purchases could be delivered to office addresses or home addresses.  Track your item through the email sent by Apple.  If necessary,  you could change the delivery address to your office one.

  • Help w/ Time Machine and 2 External Drives + Main Drive

    I need some help on the best possible setup with the tools on hand...
    Currently I have the following:
    iMac with 500GB Hardrive
    My Book with 2 TB Hardrive
    My Book with 1.5 TB Hardrive
    What I want to do (in my head anyways) is have my main drive for my normal applications (ilife, iworks and everything else under the sun) and use the 1.5 TB for my iTunes as i have alot of movies and music and then use my 2 TB to back up the main drive and 1.5TB drive that way if my 1.5TB drive dies my iTunes are still in tack and likewise for my main drive with my applications.
    before I go ahead and do this... is it best just to use time machine on my 2TB drive? or should I parition it say 1.5TB for Time machine and 500 GB for Carbon copy so I can boot off of that drive if need be?
    I have done some research on the subject but just want to make sure I'm not missing a step or if there is a better set up I should do with my current gear (500MB main drive, external 1.5 TB and 2TB drives)
    thanks!

    total data that needs to be backed up isnt that much... probably around 600-700 MB currently
    I'm sure you mean 600-700GB
    (but it is growing). I'm in the mitts of ripping my purchased DVD's to itunes so I can watch them VIA Apple TV.
    The whole reason for me buying the 2 external drives was to ensure my itunes files wouldnt be lost in a hardrive failure as I have a very large DVD collect (around 300) and as you know its very time consuming to copy them to itunes in the first place and if my main drives dies Im not sure if I would have the patients to re-copy everything to my iMac.
    you can use the 2TB drive to back up everything you have now via TM. but if it grows much more then I would suggest using a different backup solution as outlined in my first post. TM needs space for incremental backups and some overhead just to operate. most other backup tools don't.

  • New 9 Cell S10 Battery-Advcie For First Time Charge and After?

    Did search on first time charge for laptop batteries. I just picked up a 9 cell laptop battery for my S10. What is the best way to keep the life of these battries long. Read discharge fully then charge for 12 hours. Read charge fully then discharge 3 x's.
    Any one know for sure? Please advise!-Thanks.
    PS- the battery came charged at 81%.

    Hi ... i did the first 3 x times charged full / empty .. later you can charge if you want / need  the battery ... if you use long period of time plugged with psu (week, month)  ... its better to eject the battery ..
    store at cool & dry place... and use it when you want mobile
    thats only my suggestion

    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) on your account then the steps half-way down this page will give you a reset link on your account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5312
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer your questions) then you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 link above to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • Help with Time Evaluation and function exit (HRPTIM03 / SAPLHRLV_001)

    Hello,
    Hopefully someone can help me with an issue I am having with time evaluation and a user exit I wrote.  The code for my exit is at the end of this post.  IN DEV and QAS, everything works.  However, in PRD, multiple rules are considered fulfilled (when looking in PT60), and so employees get two sets of vacation entitlements per month.
    We have three rules for quota type 03 (vacation).  Rules 3,6, and 9.  Only rule 9 should apply to the individuals with the two job numbers in the code.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Shane
    WHEN ABSENCE QUOTA TYPE IS 3 (VACATION)
    CASE XT559L-QTYPE.
    WHEN '3'.
    CASE - COMPARE SELECTION RULE FOR ABSENCE QUOTA TYPES
      CASE XT559L-ACCNR.
    WHEN RULE SELECTED IS 009
        WHEN '9'.
        IF JOB NUMBER IS 5084 OR 3084, THEN THE RULE APPLIES
          IF XP0001-STELL = '5084' OR XP0001-STELL = '3084'.
            XSUBRC = '0'.
        OTHERWISE, THE RULE DOES NOT APPLY
          ELSE.
            XSUBRC = '1'.
          ENDIF.
    WHEN ANY OTHER RULE IS SELECTED
        WHEN OTHERS.
        IF JOB NUMBER IS 5084 OR 3084, THEN THE RULE DOES NOT APPLY
          IF XP0001-STELL = '5084' OR XP0001-STELL = '3084'.
            XSUBRC = '1'.
        OTHERWISE, THE RULE APPLIES NORMALLY
          ELSE.
            XSUBRC = '0'.
          ENDIF.
      ENDCASE.
    WHEN OTHERS.
    ENDCASE.

    The problem was that even though the code was transported to PRD, and listed as Active - it still was not activated, and had to manually be done though CMOD.
