Last week, my cousin gave me his macbook pro, using it for only a week and claiming it had a shitty wireless so he gave it to me.
Now, I don't like the mac OSX, so i want to know if i install windows xp on his macbook, can i play tf2 on it?
the specifications are:
2 GHz Intel Core Duo
1.5 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAm
sorry, i don't know how to check what kind of video card it has

RAM might be on the low side, but it should run.
Do you have an external mouse BTW?

| Then you're fine. Graphics won't be that good without a decent card, but that's not really the concern, right?

i've been playing counter strike with a 10 year old computer for the longest time lol
don't think graphics will be a problem, just how smooth and how high my frame rate can get

With mediumish settings, there shouldn't be too much of a problem.
EDIT: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GImIpYsqA5c <-- Seems to run alright. Average of 59FPS running it in bootcamp at 1440x900 with high settings. Would probably run better natively.

Why would you install such an old OS on a fairly new laptop
AFAIK, XP does not support EFI, you'll only be able to install Vista or 7.
