Apple: Final Cut Studio not Supported on MacBook

fcs_box_125.jpgApple posted a knowledge base article (Article ID: 303782) explaining how Final Cut Studio is not supported on the MacBook:

If you have a MacBook, the Final Cut Studio (Universal) crossgrade Installer does not prohibit you from installing the pro applications, but this configuration does not meet the minimum system requirements for Final Cut Studio.
See the Final Cut Studio system requirements for complete requirements.
Note: The integrated graphics processor in the MacBook does not permit float processing in Motion and will result in degraded performance and other issues in Motion and other Final Cut Studio applications.

I have a MacBook 2.0GHZ and it runs Final Cut Pro beautifully. It's about 4x faster than my old PowerBook G4 1.5GHz. I heard that the entire studio will install no problem except Motion. I'm running FCP and DVD Studio Pro.

Oops, I am sure apple will try to fix this somehow. Everyone's talking about the macbook being a consumer to-go machine and if FCP doesn't work, it will force people to buy the MBP, which is probably what Apple wants.
