blender would likely be too much. i'm using openscad to develop the laptop casework and my dual-core dual-hyperthreaded 2.4ghz modern pentium with 8gb RAM is barely able to cope: i'm looking at SECONDS per frame to render. that's with a standard intel graphics, with the shared memory bus architecture, you know the thing. so it's not surprising... but just don't be surprised when certain computational tasks mash machines into the ground, regardless of OS :)
