i'm surely no expert on this but my guess is yes..
remember, osx et al are for the intel chip and the amd chips emulate or have an identical instruction set..
unless osx does a check and bombs when it seens something other than the intel chip..

Thanks Bill, that was fast!

I just want to get sure that it will work before I am going to buy it!

Besides it makes more than 100€ more for a slower cpu!
