new Civ IV - impossible sys reqs

Aspyr just announced the system requirements for Civilization 4, and if 
you haven't bought a new Mac within the past 3 months (or don't have a 
late model G5 tower), don't bother. And even some of those won't work if 
they have shared memory (Mac mini Intel, MacBook).

My brand new PowerBook G4 @[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 1.67 GHz (ca. Nov 2005) doesn't even come 
close. WTF are they thinking? That thousands of us will run out and buy 
new computers just for them? Sorry, but I doubt it.
