Looking at laptop's again since I am giving my old one to my sister but I have one question about the 17" MBP video card.

I mainly use my laptop for surfing the net, watching videos, but I do game a bit also. Now within the next year two new games are being released that I want but do not know how the MBP will perform. They are Diablo 3 and Starcraft 2. Do you guys think the currently MBP will handle them fairly easily without going to low settings? I know they are not released yet, but this is my main sticking point since I do not want to spend money on a desktop later.

I tried searching and failed.

Cheers.

blizzard has always been known for making their games play well on older computers, i would expect the same thing this time around too
