I successfully ran an OpenCL App with an NVidia GPU on Mac OS 10.6 without having to install an additional driver. It even works with ATI support there, though the kernel compiler is still buggy. Which brings me to: By design OpenCL enables to use multiple different computing devices such as CPUs, GPUs (NVidia/ATI/Intel), Coprocessors (Cell) _on_the_same_machine_, and Apples implementation actually does support this at least for different GPUs. Does BOINC? Should it?
