Getting a MacBook Pro Retina 15-inch, but shaders?

I agree with your first paragraph, the rest is utter bullstuff that you came up with and/or don't fully understand.
Read what I said.

He is actually right about the shadow issue stemming from bad drivers. He is wrong that a fix is available, one is not.

If OP wants to play Blockland with shadows, he'll need to get a windows machine.

Yup.

So, I decided that would change the graphics card and play Blockland on Windows on my Retina.

So, would that work or not?

I'm not sure. I'll try it out for you later but it will take time for me to boot it up to Windows 7 from Mac OSX then go back to Mac OSX. I'm on my iPad currently. I'm guessing it'll work fine.

i purchased an alienware about 3 years ago and i've had no problems.

just because you buy a single one and it comes broken on accident and for some reason you DON'T return it for full price and a new one <-- (why the hell not?) doesn't mean it's bad. i can still run modern games at high graphics without issues.

no its because there over priced for stuffty specs

Yeah because I remember Badspot saying this when shaders was first released.
