Man, I dont know HOW long we have been waiting for THIS one to come out. I have been drooling for a year already!

Can you believe 700MB HD space? Yikes! Im not much of a gamer (UT and the War series are my favs) but that seems like a lot! Oh well, anything for War3

I mean, run WarCraft 3 effectively. The processor is a G4 500 with 512 MB or RAM. Dunno about the video card. I'm going back to Windoze if I can't play it! Argh!

I dont know, but I have the 550Ti and it has an ATI Radeon with 16MB of VRAM. I think the 500 only has 8MB of VRAM. (not sure though) That may be the only thing preventing you.

The 400 & 500 (Original) have 8 MB of video memory (ATI RAGE 128 Mobility 2x AGP)

i have warcraft 3 running on a 1ghz pc with a nvidia geforce 2 mx @ 32mb...

surprisingly laggy at times, even if textures are set low.. (my total % for other apps was only 1...)

i can send screenshots if anyone wants

I got my new computer for the sole purpose of playing War 3, I can't wait to get my hands on it. 700mb is not big, Diablo2 full install plus expansion is 2.4gb and 1.6gb for online install. It is hard to imagine my Performa had a 800mb HD! And that there are games bigger then its storage capacity.
