[QUOTE="Discerptor, post: 705326, member: 12177"] Strictly speaking, I don't think any of those programs actually use the video card, so the MacBook Pro won't give you a PHENOMENAL performance improvement over the MacBook. On that note, it will give you some performance improvement, but I would wait for the next MacBook Pro revision, probably due out by early 4th quarter (it's how Apple operates generally speaking; I don't actually have insider information). I normally don't advise this, but with the recent troubles leaked about all the GeForce 8400s and 8600s, I'd wait so you at least get a video card in your computer that you know won't crap out on you.
