I suspect not. None of those really challenge even the lowly Mac mini or low end iMac.

Unless you are thinking of buying used, the only current Apple machine with Core Duo is the Mac mini. The rest of the machines use Core 2 Duo or better. Perhaps your real concern is about the graphics system. That will affect a "heavy graphics user" much more.
