Hello. I'm a beginner in photgraphy and currently in the military so I'll be travelling a lot. Budget is tight but I'm in need of a notebook. I'm trying to get a hold of those who own a MBP with a 2.16 C2D processor. I want to be able to run CS3 and/or Aperture and do some minor video editing.

-Would you say that this MBP can do those things that I want and not have it lag too much?

I can't think of anything else to ask right now but hopefully I'll figure something out along the way. I would really appreciate your guys' input. Thanks!

So long as you feed it enough RAM it will be fine. I ran CS3 and aperture on my MacBook 1.83 and it was fine, a little laggy due to my 1GB of RAM, but fine. Screen is small, so i stopped using it after a while (besides, I don't know enough, or care enough for PhotoShop/Aperture)
