I am thinking of buying a new MBP and wanted to get advice on which one I should buy. I currently just use a laptop for browsing, watching video/films and listening to music. My current laptop is constantly connected to a 50" plasma via HDMI, I use this for my movie watching. Anyway I had a few questions.....

Will a MBP be able to play full 1080p HD video?
Will it be able to output to the plasma TV via HDMI?
I see the 15" 2.66GHz model has an extra 9600GT gfx card on top of the 9400M, is this needed for what I would be using it for?
If I don’t require the extra gfx power would it be worth while using the saving to invest in more ram or a blueray drive?

Oh I also heard about the HE deals, my gf is a student at uni. Is it just a case of her ordering from within the uni network or does she need to show her uni ID card in an apple store?


Cheers
 
Thanks for the reply mate that did help answer most of the questions. So did you end up going for the 2.66 15"?.... how does it handle the HD content?
