Hello all, Just wanted to shout out about my new shiny 5k iMac (ordered yesterday).... Can't wait for it to arrive, and my misses does not get excited about computers or anything geeky (apart from me that is). So thought would share the news with people who will care I'm currently on a 2012 Macbook Pro 13" and have found that I can not access some of the BuildBox buttons at times! 1280x800 seems to be an issue for BB. But now will have a HUGE 5120x2880 screen resolution to fit it all on! My production & motivation will increase with the 5k thats for sure Have some new game ideas, but going to jot them on paper till I get new screen Anyone else on the 5k display? What are you running BuildBox on? Feel free to comment and share your setup!
Just picked up one of the new 5K iMacs myself (3.3 GHz Intel Core i5) — t's amazing. Loving the new Magic trackpad too. The BuildBox UI could use some retina icons though, they are all at 1x currently and look very jaggy.
old laptop just died so I picked up a new 15" MBP with 1TB flash drive and I'm so impressed by the speed! Computer boots in 15 seconds.
I am also currently on a 2012 Macbook Pro 13inch. It is kinda hard to use Buildbox on here because Buildbox appears to want to take up more screen real estate than is available on my screen. Sometimes, if I zoom in or our from editing the gamefield, I have trouble getting back to the view I was in and the editing is no longer centered where I was. Have others experienced this -- if it is just me then I won't email support; I'll just work out my own solutions
Being serious...I have a late 2009 iMac 27" 2.8Ghz i7. Upgraded to 16MB and an SSD drive. I would get myself a new 5K but @TreySmith put a stop to that by taking all my money for BB
2013 Mac Book Pro. Planning on upgrading when I make some revenue from some unreleased games. Works great though running BB.
I run BB on both PC and a Mac Mini. One thing I will say about using a Mac Mini for to test BuildBox iOS exports on or any kind of iOS development in the Xcode simulators, is to make sure to upgrade from the tiny 4GB of RAM that comes with it (at least mine did, 2012 model) to up to 16GB, otherwise the Xcode simulators will run annoyingly slowly.

Damn did not get the trackpad, but may have to get it now!! Also just got my Apple TV, playing Darthy and Almost Impossible (completed your game twice now!) Noticed a little laggy on Almost Impossible TV, but still a great game! (Hoping for some new levels!)
Loving my 5k display, and would advise anyone running BB on 13" to upgrade!! Some BB buttons are not visible on a 13" Apple TV is pants! No UK TV apps like BBC, ALL4, etc... Only TV I have is Netflix, and YouTube!!! (are there any better apps on TV yet?) TBH I only bought for development, and will use the Xbox One to stream TV! (even though no Sky app on that either, only on 360!)
I just brought a 2013 iMac 27" 3.5GHz i7, 16GB Ram, 1TB HD. I got tired of working on my 15" Macbook Pro.
I have a late 2011 MBP 17" 2.4Ghz i7 with 16GB Ram and 2 TB SSD... Apple just replaced my motherboard for free (post warranty) and Late 2013 iMac 27" 3.4Ghz i5 with 12GB Ram and 1TB HD and external 24" monitor for more screen real estate.
