So what's the proper way to format my MBP?

How do I leave my MacBook Pro formated, like new and back to factory defaults?
Do I just pop-in the disc that was included?
How long is the procedure? What about the apps?

Thanks very much.

There should be a guide on this in the forums please go search, if not, somebody should start one.

Well the first thing to do is to backup all your stuff in an external drive, and then follow the guide here: http://guides.macrumors.com/Clean_Install_of_OS_X_10.6_Snow_Leopard
