Discussion: Deprecating support for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard - 9/22/11

All this means is if you have a problem they can't help you unless you are running 10.6 or higher. Admittedly they may change the system in the future so it can't even run on 10.5 but I don't think that's right now.

As an aside, I run CoH on my Macbook Air (2nd ed, the dual core version, not the i3\5) and it runs on Lion perfectly. Or at least no worse than CoH runs on a PC as far as I can tell.

As a 2nd aside, as long as your Mac is Intel based you should have no problem running Snow Leopard. I have Snow Leopard installed on an original Macbook with no issues. I wouldn't want to run CoH on it mind, but that's just a minimum spec issue.
