GUID is the "preferred" partitioning scheme for an Intel Mac. Intel Macs can, however, start up from Apple Partition Map partitioned drives.
So, use GUID unless you have a reason not to (e.g. you're sharing a drive between a Power PC and Intel Mac, have two partitions, and want each to be bootable for its corresponding Mac).
