How is the game on an Air Mac

They just look so small? Does the game (and all the add ons) work well enough on an Air Mac?

make sure to set FPS for the 3d graphics. if you get any lag, reduce quality of 3d graphics etc.

no matter what, there's absolutely no reason to have >refresh rate FPS. your eye cannot see the difference and it reduces tearing to lock to refresh rate. if your hardware is nice, it also avoid its burning up at some insane 300+ FPS or something.

I run my league on a (non-Air) Mac and generally speaking IIRC the in-game graphics tend to work better on PC (although definitely do what NoOne said; there's no reason to make the game try to spit out 300 FPS animations) but stuff like reading and writing to league files works faster on Macs in general so simming out seasons should actually be a little quicker on the latter.
