Which Mac?

I was looking at the new Macbooks at the Apple homepage, and I am considering to buy one. There is just one problem...

Can CoH run ("smoothly") on a Macbook, or do I need to go Pro? Or what do I look for in Macs?

In advance- Thanks

If you're comfortable on the lower settings, a MacBook would be fine.

I run on a MacBook Pro. Used to run COX on bootcamp prior to the official Mac Client, and it's far from perfect, but smooth considering the hardware. Be sure to specify the videocard...I infinitely regret letting an ATI card be installed onto this

Well I see that the new Macbooks got GeForce card.. How would that do?

A fair share better than mine, i'd expect :P

Perhaps post up the advertised Spec for the Tech Heads to have a look at? I'd imagine they'd do fine tbh, just beware of overheating (my main issue)
