What results can I expect from Halo for the Mac with the $5.00 Universal Binary update?

My Macbook is a 2.0GHz C2D with 2GB RAM installed, running off the base 80GB 5400 RPM HDD.

Ideally I'd like 30FPS at 1280x800 resolution; can the GMA950 coupled with UB pull that off?

From Scarlet Fever in another thread:

i run Halo on:

Pixel + vertex shading on (detail objects)
no FSAA
low lens flare
model detail high

1024x640
30FPS
no specular
no shadows
decals on
particles high
texture quality high

sound quality medium
sound variety medium

all on a baseline MacBook (1.83, 512MB) and it runs acceptably. But i still prefer it on my parent's MBP
