I own an Intel Mac mini Core Duo processor and 1,25 GB RAM.
I came from normal PC and played Civ4 there for quite some time.
What I find interesting is this:
If you install Windows XP with bootCamp, install Civ4 with the latest
Patch and then play Civ4 - it works perfect.
Smooth scrolling, quite fast reactions even with great savegames etc.
I was surprised about that.
So, that might be an alternative for users with new Intel-Macs.
