I'm sure the MacBook will be fine for your needs; I still edit video with iMovie on an 800MHz iBook G4 with 768MB or RAM.

That being said, photon is absolutely right that the MacBook Pros are a much nicer machine -- it's just so much more polished. The aluminum finish is sharp, the backlit keyboard is nifty, etc. If I was in the market for a new laptop right now, that's the one I would buy without a doubt.
