Mac can handle yahoo with no problem, you can also download firefox/mozilla too or use safari which comes with the Macs.
Go to the apple website to get more information on the Windows XP, they have a good site with lots of information.

Like federicom said, you have to install Boot Camp. You also, however, have to have a full version of XP. You can't just install Boot Camp and it run XP. (Some people have actually thought that's what it meant.) You install Boot Camp, it partitions your hard drive, and then you can install another OS, which you purchase the full version of somewhere else, on the partition. Make sure you follow the instructions carefully! Good luck.

Yeah, you'll have to get BootCamp to make it work. How to exactly do it, I dunno, Google?
Your Yahoo Internet will work just fine when you use XP on your Macbook, nothing else needed.
Also note that you can run the upcoming Windows Vista with Bootcamp too.
