Does the MacBooks thermal camera work the same as a real one?

I don't think it's an actual thermal camera at all. In other words, I don't think it really detects infrared light. I think it just detects total visible light intensity, and displays that intensity the way an infrared camera would - with maximum intensity displayed as bright red, and minimum intensity displayed as deep blue. You can tell this is the case by taking it into a dark closet. It doesn't detect anything, including your own hands or face, because there's no visible light present. A real infrared camera would "see" your hand or your face in a dark closet. The Photobooth "thermal camera" does not, because it isn't really a thermal camera. Which is unsurprising. CCD's with real infrared detection are kind of expensive.

If it came without a disk and you have to boot to the reinstallation/ Utility/restore partition (sorry, can't remember the right name) then you just reboot into that partition and do the same thing.

What is the difference between an Apple MacBook laptop and an Apple MacBook Pro laptop?

A laptop is generally a cheaper alternative to a Macbook. As far as functionality goes, a laptop will fulfill all your daily needs of Surfing the web, downloading, watching movies, sharing and editing photos et al. But all of this will be a regular experience for most of the Windows users. If you're looking for something which does everything mentioned above with a touch of style or in a graphically appealing manner then you can look towards a MacBook. Apple products are like a woman in stilettos and stockings. They appeal to your senses. You buy Apple products more for their sleek looks and snob value. Though on the expensive side they are definitely good quality. Reliable, relatively virus free, long lasting with better battery life than regular laptops and good to use. Laptops with Windows software are like a strict teacher with a stick in hand. They will teach you the basics of computing and provide a utility friendly experience to you. Windows is usually known to freeze and get infected with viruses but you have anti virus softwares for that in the market. If you're a first time laptop buyer and want to buy it for practical purposes, are under a budget and are not in need of a 'sensual' experience then you must go for a laptop. If, however you have money to spare and want a new, appealing user interface and experience, are concerned with looks and travel a lot and thus require long lasting battery then you may go for a MacBook. Though these days MacBooks are coming with integrated battery so they're not user replaceable.
