Hey!

Well, I am in a dilemma here; I want a MBP but I don't know if I need to (or can) wait 2-4 months.

Would the current 13" model (2.4 one) be sufficient for playing games like Counter Strike Source or Team Fortress 2? I know for sure that it can handle like Eclipse IDE, but I also like to play some games.

If possible, can someone with experience answer? ;)
I appreciate all answers, nonetheless.

(also, I am hoping to play these games at atleast medium graphics - native resolution)
