It does not work at all on my MBP and quits every time I try to play it and my system far exceeds the minimum requirements. However it does work on my iMac 1.83GHz Core Duo with a X1600 :confused:. It does get choppy on the iMac however and that can cause you to miss some notes.

I tried it with no programs on, using the iMac, and it was still choppy during some parts of the song. The iMac that I'm using has 2GB of RAM as well, it also has plenty of space on the hard drive. Also, this is using the lowest graphic settings.
