Hate to reply first to my own post but...Baldur's Gate just arrived here so I'll let you know how it is in a few hours . 
I'm still quite suprised! I ordered this thing at nine last night! Oh well, I certainly won't complain because my order got here too *fast*!
Peace

OK, sorta off-topic but...
Is Baulder's Gate a good game for the Mac? I've considered getting it but I want to play a demo version first.
Does anyone know where I can download a demo version?
Thanks,
Toad

I'm running Baldur's on a 233 Powerbook. The game runs slowly, but is playable. Two annoyances - hard to control the cursor, and frequent crashes. The game crashes even with minimal extensions running, and always when something interesting happens. Save often!

I'm running on a Rev C iMac with 96MB of RAM. The game crashes all the time. It's gotten unfun to play. I'll do one more round of extensions t'shooting based on some info I read at MacFixIt forums. If that does not work I'll return it for a refund.

I've been running it for the past few weeks without problem on my Beige G3 300 (128 MB RAM).
I use a minimal extension set and I have all the effects (weather, transparent shadows) turned on. The character walking is a bit slow, but otherwise I love the game.
Toad: as for a demo, I'm unaware of one. I think GraphSim is too busy with multi-player to create one. But if you like D&D role playing, I think you'll enjoy BG. It's very faithful to the rules.

UUUUggghhhh!
So I was cutting down on the extensions and some how hosed my OS. In the end I had to do a clean install. What a mess. As soon as things are fully running again I'll take another stabe at the extension and BG.
I'm about ready to send it back for a refund. I sent email to the online store I bouth from and Graphsim to see how to get a refund. Strange that they haven't replied to my email?

It is working great on my iBook SE 128 megs, full extension set with VM on.
Not a single crash, runs fast enough although the cursor is sometimes a little hard to control with the trackpad.
Great fun, good luck!

From what I've read here and at MacFixIt it seems that 128 MB of RAM is the sweet spot for this game. Graphsim should state that 128 is the minimum memory to run the game NOT 64 MB.
