Kyma will run on any MacBook that has a Thunderbolt port. You can use an Apple Thunderbolt to FireWire Adapter to connect the computer to the Paca(rana) and its audio interface.

Since a few weeks i use an Apple MacBook Air 11,6" 2,2 GHz Intel Core i7 8GB together with the Apple Thunderbold/Firewire Adapter and a Pacarana.

Honestly i feel that for Kyma it is no so much difference speedwise to the much more powerfull MacPro 12Core i used before i bought the dedicated MacBook Air for my Kyma Setup.

Kyma works and performs great on the Macbook Air and is absolute fast enought even with large Timelines or Multigrids.
