Well, thats not true.
You have some options when buying a Mac, buts thats only available in digital order.

I have a Retina MacBook Pro 15" and its amazing. I love it. But, Macs in general cannot run shaders due to no support. I believe the developers of Blockland tried a few times, but they don't have Macs so they just gave up on trying.

Macs are not made for gaming. sorry.
I would have one if It did.

One thing everyone who always bashes on Mac for not being gaming computers needs to think is that sometimes we dont want a computer just for gaming ;P
Although its true, they're not made for gaming.

People bash macs so much, but I still have yet to see a good windows laptop.
If I were you, I would steer clear of the retina macs, there's not much of a benefit, seeing as text is really the only thing being improved. Also games don't run as fast due to the resolution.
