Will Spore run on my Mac Book?

Hi, time for more silly, easy questions.

This is again about my new Mac Book (the white one, not a Mac Book Pro). My "About this Mac" give me:
  Model Name:    MacBook
  Model Identifier:    MacBook4,1
  Processor Name:    Intel Core 2 Duo
  Processor Speed:    2.4 GHz
  Number Of Processors:    1
  Total Number Of Cores:    2
  Bus Speed:    800 MHz
  Boot ROM Version:    MB41.00C1.B00

Wikipedia says of systems requirements:
Mac: Mac OS X 10.5.3 Leopard, Intel Core Duo, 1024 MB RAM, 4.7 GB of hard drive space, plus additional space for creations NOTE: This game will not run on PowerPC (G3/G4/G5) Macs (PowerMac), nor Intel Mac Minis or pre-2008 Macbooks. (For computers using built-in graphics chipsets, Intel Integrated Chipset GMA X3100, Dual 2.0 GHz CPUs, or 1.7 GHz Core 2 Duo.)[4]


Just hold my hand and reassure me here. It will run, right?

You're good since you probably have a GMA X3100. (check your apple system profiler to be sure)

Looks like it will run as you have a 2008 model with the X3100 graphics chip.
