MB vs. MB Pro
I have had about as much fun in PC land as I can take.
The specs on the 2.4 MB and the 15" 2.4 Pro are basically identical beside the video card and screen size. What does the pro have to offer over the regular macbooks? Seems like a waste of money unless I want the extra screen real estate (which I don't), since I have found the 13" form factor much easier to travel with.

MBP has: Bigger display, better video chipset, express card slot, firewire.
If you don't need any of those things and will largely be using it for day to day activities (e.g. no intensive graphics work or video stuff), the MacBook is the way to go.

Fill it full of ram and you should be fine unless you're working with lots of very, very large images.

Absolutely. For Internet/Mail ... and normal stuff (Office, etc), MB is the way to go.
