Or am I doomed in trying?

    I run the Mac version of WoW on my black Macbook with 2 GB of RAM. It runs fine (20 to 30 fps) on low to medium settings, but it runs *a lot* better on my friend's 15" MBP. On my Macbook, I can do 40-man raids without significant stutter and the new graphics drivers in Apple's latest OS update increased my framerates by 5-10, which is particularly easy to notice in busy areas like Ironforge. For everyday WoW usage, a Macbook will be fine. Just don't expect to have all the visual bells and whistles.

    Alright yeah thats perfect, I don't mind having it on the lowest settings, as long as its playable.



    Thanks!

    I just want to had that Wow simply shines on my MBP 17". First time ever I've played a game this quality on a mac with no lags at all, whatsoever.

    Blizzard is quite supportive of the mac platform. It probably won't be long before there's an Intel native version, anyway.

    It should run reasonably well. Hell, I'm still using my old 1.25G G4 MDD PM.... till I see my new replacement
