[QUOTE="smythers78, post: 394541, member: 31227"] I read a good review online last year in which the reviewer ran Final Cut on the Macbook (not the pro) and compared it with the G5, MBP and maybe a Powerbook. The Macbook did very well -- not having a separate video card didn't hurt it a bit. The MBP did even better. My current MBP has 1 gig of RAM and it does fine with Final Cut. I didn't notice any difference in rendering time compared to the G5, but I did notice that it took longer to export to quicktime movies -- about 2-3x longer. I think once I upgrade to 2 gigs of RAM, that difference will decrease if or will be eliminated completely. [/QUOTE]
