fuck man thats a problem ... if its just the mackbook then you can't fit a card in there. I asked some people at stores about that and thats they told me 

thats why a macbook pro is what you need because it has a sick graphics card 

But then agin i just realized that when you prder tour mac off the site it asks if you want to get final cut express pre installed so i catually have no clue

Yeah, the MacBook has an integrated graphics card, so it can't be upgraded.
Maybe you need to configure it to read or something, who knows...cause even though the card can't be upgraded, it can run FC without issue if you've got enough RAM, as far as I understand it.

Yeah man, that's weird, I've got 2 gigs in my MacBook as well...that's plenty to run FC...call Apple and see what the tech support can do for you.
