Has anyone tried running solidworks on a macbook?
 
Thanks, but I understood that this discussion is centered on Macbook PRO with more emphasis on high-end performance with complex parts and assemblies.

I have a measly macbook (not pro) and was wondering if anyone had any success (or failures) trying SW on a less powerful machine...
 
I have installed SW08 on my MacBook (2.1Ghz, 2G RAM). It can't handle the larger assemblies I deal with at work, but for small projects (dozens of parts instead of thousands) it works fine. I have done things with it like model my house, furniture, archery equipment, etc.
