I would recommend the refurbished Macbook Pro from apple's refurbished section. It should be 1500 for a 2.2ghz with 2gb ram, 120gb hdd, 256mb 8600m gt. It is not worth getting the 512 card as opposed to the 256 because of the slow memory interface. So 256 should be enough. I was considering the refurbished mbp but i went with the refurbished macbook instead for $949. Whichever one you pick, you will be satisfied with it.
