i want to buy a MBP and am going to buy one but i want to take advantage of the gaming abilities in the 8600m. counterstrike needs windows and i dont want to use XP so will vista work on the mbp?

edit: i will be buying 64-bit edition wondering if theres problems.
 
It will work. But some games might not be compatible with Vista. You should look to make sure that the old games you want to play can run well on Vista, otherwise XP might be the other option. But if you are only getting the "latest and greatest" games, than Vista will be fine.

In a word . . yes :)
