Hi William,
I am running Gazebo (0.7.0) with Player (2.0.3) and Stage (2.0.3) on
a MacBook Pro (3GB and Intel Core duo 2.33 GHz) and an ATI Radeon
X1600 card running Mac OS X (10.4.9). Performance running Gazebo is
good, unless I run world models that include a skin (mesh), in which
case it really becomes slooooow to the point of no use, but I have to
admit that I have not attempted to fix or optimize it (if it is at
all possible). I have a version of Debian as a Guest OS under
Parallels Desktop too, but I've noticed performance to be better on
the native OS X. Although this is a MacBook Pro, my configuration
might give you an idea of what to expect on a MacBook.
Hope this helps.

Hi all,
I've just spent a while trying to get Gazebo running on a Dell
desktop. That machine has an integrated Intel i915 graphics chipset,
and this doesn't seem to play nicely with gazebo on kubuntu. The
solution we ended up going with for that machine was buying a new
NVidia graphics card and installing the NVidia glx drivers.
I'm looking at getting a MacBook though, and I'd like to work with
Gazebo on it. Can anyone verify that gazebo will run (with graphics)
on a MacBook? (I'm particularly interested in a MacBook running
linux... both booted directly, and maybe under VMWare/parallels from
MacOS.)
Is a MacBook pro going to be better for this?
Thanks for any feedback,
Will :-}
