I want to develop C# and .NET based iPhone applications in MonoTouch. But my goal is to develop iPhone applications so things may end up with Objective-C -so Xcode- too.
Obviously, I have to buy a Mac. I’ve been lookin’ for sales and found a couple of good machines but I still want to make sure that I can use these 2 programs in good performance.
So I want to know that if anyone uses these programs could advice me some system requirements? For example, does the CPU matters? Should I buy an iMac with Intel CPU our is G4-G5 better? And what about the VGA and RAM? Is 1GB or 2GB enough for ram and 256+ for VGA?
Of course better properties mean better performances but what’s the minimum for this? We can talk on iMac.
Read this thread from the monotouch mailing-list. It’s about laptop initially but it will give you the specs people are using and recommending.
