Probably the cheapest way to get into GameSalad if you don't already have a Mac!

You can find details here:

Hope that helps,

QS

P.S. - it looks lubberly! :D

    I'm hoping to have the money to buy this for my partner later in the year. (He's going the coding route, not the GS one.) ^-^;

    I actually went and bought a Mac Mini after my first 3 games were published in the App Store. It's a nice computer.

    Isn't the new Mac Mini $100 more?

    While I like the new HDMI port, I think I got a better value from last year's model... nothing fancy... nothing salient... (hi quantumsheep!) ...just a little box that runs GameSalad.

    I bought a Mac Mini CoreSolo on eBay for $400... has 2GB RAM and runs GS sweet :) Bought a secondhand LCD for $40 too. Good little system but I don't mind upgrading if my first game sells well. LOL.

    That mac mini looks so much nicer compared to the last one. Core 2 Duo will run GS great, but if you want to run everything at once then an i7 iMac is the dream machine 8-)
