I have found some threads/posts on the web that indicate people have been using a macbook with FCP.

example...

Back on point about Final Cut Pro as is already posted above - the entire Studio runs fine on MacBook except advanced Motion work. Even simple Motion work will run OK. With the next Intel's GMA X3000 graphics technology, all should run great on the MacBook.

These are older posts, but I'm wondering about the new macbook.

Thanks
