Starting school this month and decided on 15 in MBP, but I have not decided between 2.0 or 2.2. Help me. I will be taking design and art classes and using PS.
 
Depends, what programs will you be using? I have a 13" 2.3 MBP and I can run Photoshop CS5 perfectly.
 
Depends if you think the jump from 256 mb video memory to 1 GB video memory is worth it. Would help with gaming, but unless you're getting seriously funky in Photoshop, you should be OK with the 2.0. (Personally, I think that there' s no point in buying the high end 13" or the low 15", but I realize that in some countries especially there's a pretty big price difference between the 2.2 and 2.0.)
