yea exactly, although I'm thinking older versions of 10.5 worked better with the GMA950, but this was based on old results with WoW and idk what my driver was at that time, but if I updated to a certain version of 10.5.* WoW would run slower with graphic glitches.
Most of my testing was done in 10.5.*, and some games ran better in Crossover then with stock drivers, such as CS:S (it was almost like it had software vertex enabled somehow).
