[QUOTE="Zoolook, post: 1121470, member: 21101"] My MacBook has a 950M, the singularly most awful one (believe me, the ironic quotation marks are definitely not needed). You probably have the x3100 graphics. So sure, it runs well as long as you don't try to run Photoshop CS5, or use exposé with more than 8 or 9 windows, or play a game, or run Hulu Desktop in high resolution or want hardware support for Flash, or anything else that actually makes use of the GPU. Additionally, as more applications use CUDA, which Snow Leopard supports, you'll notice a difference between Macs that have integrated Intel and one's that have a real GPU. But you're absolutely right, the OS itself will run beautifully. [/QUOTE]
