Hey, We have some used mac powerbooks where i work and i was playing around with one, and i installed the halo mac demo and was astounded to find that the halo demo ran at 800x600 with everything at high flawlessly - so i did some looking into it and i believe it has a mobility radeon 9700 64 mb - but when i look at the system properties alls it tells me is that its a 64 mb video card >.> and ati's website doesent have drivers for a mac mobility radeon 9700, it has a G4 processor at 1.5 ghz and 512 mb RAM PC 2700 i believe, i think its this http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/powerbook_g4/stats/powerbook_g4_1.5_15.html
so, any way for me to determine exactly what it is that this mac has for the video, and where i can get the latest drivers if it is a mobility 9700? And if i bumped the RAM up to a gig and it has a 970 will it run WoW well at all?
I am thinking of picking one up as a school / halo+WoW notebook
EDIT* ok i think i found a solution to the driver part lol
