For cooking just a breast, how long/pound at what temp? I'm just looking for a rule of thumb.

When cooking breasts I am a big fan of shake and bake. Boneless takes 20 minutes at 375°. Mal's right that bone in is a little juicier but boneless is just a little easier to cut up and eat.
If you are trying to be fancy, shake and bake isn't going to cut it. Make sure you have the skin on and the bone in. Rub the breast with some herbs (rosemary or sage), salt and pepper, cook in the over at 375° for about 40 minutes or so. You don't want to overcook and slow cooking is better.
