    if it's the one on your sig, it will run CoH on medium-high settings with playable framerates.

    If I recall correctly I was able to run the Company of Heroes demo with a 2.4 GHz P4 and a Geforce FX 5500 on low. Even the older MBPs should have no problems with it.

    Youll be able to run it, but as you increase the settings its going to lag. Even on low settings its going to lag when you have lots of units.

    You'll be able to run it fine. My desktop P4 2.4 ghz, 1g ram, FX 5600 can run it at lowest settings, albeit with ****ty FPS. If my MBP is any gauge, it can run it smoothly with near maxed settings (minus full AA and such).
