The 15" ones have dedicated graphics cards (ATI Mobility Radeon X1600) where as the 13" have onboard...
13" has 2ghz dual cpu and 15" has same but 2.16ghz
My current laptop is a 1.75ghz centrino, with 512mb ram and a 5300FXGo
How would they compare to that? (i'll be putting a gig in the macbook depending on which I get, unless you guys recommend 2gig..)
I havnt played games in a while but sometimes I get an urge to play them, how would they hold out? (regardless of the fact that its osx, i'll prolly install xp too)

One problem i've heard of with the macbook pro is that with XP installed the power management doesn't work and it gets to temperatures akin to the surface of the sun. Dunno if it's been sorted out yet though...
