Mac Mini Intel that is.

Does anyone use one with Shark FX? What's the graphics performance like?
(I suppose a Macbook is the same too? Same graphics processor; Intel GMA 950?

I occasionally use CU4 on an MacBook Air 1.66 with 2GB ram and intel X1300 graphics - the next step up from the gma 950. For small things the performance is surprisingly good. Obviously on an mba the small screen size make things tough, but it is usable.

Before buying my iMac a few years back, I tried CU out on a MacBook with the gma 950, performance was barely acceptable, but of course it depends on how complex your model is.
Shark FX 9 build 1143
OS X 9.5
3.6 GHz Core i7, 8GB, GTX 760 2GB
