I've been running CS6 on a 3 year old MacBook Pro. No GPU acceleration, I think, but it copes with everything pretty well. I've also got FCP7, FCPx and Avid Media Composer on there with no issues. The new ones are much faster and have Thunbderbolt which is good for attaching fast storage and extra monitors etc.
