Hmm, now that I've read all about the ULV U1300 at speeds of 1.06 and 1.2 GHz, I'm not buying this as a good chip for any sort of MBP. I'd go with a LV chip like the T2300, a Core Duo at 1.5 to 1.66 GHz. The U1300 only has a 533 MHz FSB. It's just too lame. Also, integrated graphics on a Pro MacBook would suck. Use the ATI X1600 or at the very least, the X1400 GPU. Let the 12" MBP be an inch thick and a pound heavier if you're going to end up with a superior product.

ULV chips aren't cheap but can let you build a sleek, thin, light portable like that Gateway E-100M which is .8" thin and weighs just over 3.1 lbs. For the same price, let me have the same thing but .2" thicker and a pound heavier but a whale of a lot more powerful.
