    snow leopard offloads a lot of processing to the more powerful gpu's which is one of the reason apple adopted the dual card setup in the mbp.

    do you do video editing or a lot of gaming? go with the dual cards.

    do you work off the battery a lot? go with the single card.

    • apple just replaced my 1st gen mbp with the new 15" 2.53 mbp. it is driving a 24" dell lcd and is more than adequate for print/photoshop work.johndiggity
    • print/photoshop work. spend the extra on the 7200rpm drive if you can. or better, get a ssd.johndiggity
