[QUOTE="Cashmonee, post: 222332, member: 16850"] Your 7600GT will outperform a regular mobility x1600. Since the x1600 in the MacBook Pro is underclocked you will not see nearly the same performance I suspect. And I doubt 10.5 will be here before January. My advice is to run 3dMark05 on your desktop. The MacBook Pro scores about 2800. Campare that to what you get! Good Luck! **EDIT** Also, I have been running MS Office, Dreamweaver and Fireworks all through Rosetta, and after they load they are not bad. Not as quick as they could be, but more than usable. If you have enough RAM Rosetta actually does quite well. I cannot comment on the rest of the Adobe apps. [/QUOTE]
