Restoring MacBook prior to selling; Anything Special to insure that my info is safe?

[Noisemaker]

I'm selling my Macbook next week, and I want to make sure that my information will be safe. I'm doing a restore with the Snow Leopard disks, but is that enough to erase my info, or is there more that I can do to make sure that my info can't be retrieved?

If you're really paranoid, start from the Mac OS X disk and then open Disk Utility. Select your hard drive and then click on the Erase tab and then Security Options. Then select one of the zero out options.

Then I would just reinstall OSX as normal?
