If I plan to do a decent amount of photo processing in Aperature on a MB would the stock video card be suitable? Most people I have talked to about this have MBP's or MP's and obviously have no issues however I was wondering if someone here could speak from experience with a MB. Thanks
Got a tip for us?

If you're referring to Apple's Aperture, I'm sure it will run fine on a MacBook. Go to the following website and see the minimum requirements (the MacBook qualifies

I see that it meets the physical requirements, but does it pass user requirements (ie, image quality, lag time, etc)?
Can't help you with this one. I'm only using iPhoto on my MBP, lol. From my memory, I remember seeing people say in other threads that Aperture, unlike video editing software such as FinalCut Pro don't rely much on graphics card but is CPU intensive. Again, don't take my words for it. Sorry I can't be of much help.
