Default Macbook pro 15 'in 2.53 ghz or 2.66 ghz?

Help!! I'm thinking about buying a mac but having a hard time deciding between the two. I will be mostly using it for class work, surfing the internet, listen to music, and watching movies. Which one should i get?

1. Is there a significant difference in speed/performance between these two processors besides price and the 2.66 ghz comes with NVIDIA GeForce 9400M + 9600M GT with 256MB for better graphics/gaming and the 2.53 ghz only comes with the NVIDIA GeForce 9400M?

2) I am a Business/ IT student and I am learning Entry level database/ web programming (php, mysql, SQL ,access, and html. Do you think this is the wrong type of computer for me to be buying meaning should i just get a pc instead? Would these programs be more difficult to do with a Mac?
