Hey all,

The only game I play is WoW. I currently use a pretty beefy PC to run it on my 20" external monitor. I am thinking of making the switch to a Mac laptop, but price is an issue. Would I notice any performance difference between these machines given the same ram and HD:

Macbook Pro 13
Macbook 13

I think I could get one of these for less than 1k, refurbished with the GeForce 320M. I know the Macbook Pro 15 would be more FPS but its also getting up there in price.
 
They would both play it fine. I have last years MBP with the 9400m and I can turn everything up except for shadows, so if you don't care about shadows then the regular MacBook will be fine. If you do care, get the new MBP with the 320m. You can look on youtube to see videos of both in motion.
