Blender 2.49b is Out
Years ago I got an SGI Indigo2 workstations with High Impact graphics, and was simply blown away by blender on that machine. It had something like 384MB RAM, and a sub-200MHz R10k, but it could run blender like it was a machine with 100 times that processing power. Since then, I haven't done a lot with blender, but I have staid up to date with it on my Macs as the graphics are better, the CPUs are better, and it was a great experience.
Today the blender crew released Blender 2.49b and I had to get it. It seems to run very nicely on Snow Leopard, but then again, the entire app was written in OpenGL, so if the graphics are good, the app is good. Nice to see it's still being worked on.
