Mudbox is one of the most graphics intensive programs. Please check out the product certifications here:

Mudbox is certified only with workstation cards. i.e. Nvidia Quadro & AMD FireGL cards.

well I'm stuck with an ATI right now. does that mean no mudbox 2012 for me? or can i expect a change?

Mudbox 2009 seems ok with my laptop.

Unfortuately, you are stuck.  Each version of the software becomes much more demanding as new features are added.
