I believe you would be.
Get a new unibody macbook and an external 20" monitor, instead ![]() the 8600 GT is really terrible, I know because I have it my 2007 Santarosa MBP. the Macbook simple trashes my MBP with second life Naturally, if you are interested in high-end rendering or professional vdeo editing, that's another story altogether. and BTW, the 8600M GT mounted on 15" and 17" is bound to get fried, exactly like mine recently did.
