If you are playing any games at all just get a decent desktop. Is there any reason you want a laptop? Specifically a mac?

there is no GMA 3600
get a macbook with a 8600GT instead, or prefereably a pc, macs are usually overpriced anyway, get a windows laptop instead.

Agreed, its either X3100 or X4500, there is no 3600.
You would be better off getting a normal laptop, and then (if you really want OS X and have 1337 skillz) you can install OS X onto it along with Vista. Do a google search for "OS X86".
