Hi Savage, your pages of SDL/MAC/PASCAL looks really good.

I think I will take the plunge and buy a macbook or imac. I would prefer a MacBook Pro but can't justify the cost, so I am think to go with the macbook. I am not 100% sure if the macbook is the way to go - if anyone has any practical experience I would love to hear it.

My idea is to hang a macbook on a standard PC 22inch LCD - so the small macbook screen wouldn't be a hassle.

From everything I have read I will use the inbuilt Xcode, SDL and possible GNU PAscal or Free Pascal. Does anyone have any good reasons to go with the one or the other?

One last question if the macbook is an intel CPU will the resulting program still work on a powerPC or would that version need to be built separately?
