New Macbook Air - A good gigging machine?

[delicioso]

I have actually done a little editing on my old air, and it works, just slow, and pointless when a more powerful computer is available.

But we're talking about the new Macbook Air which is powerful enough to outperform its Macbook Pro counterpart.

Be aware of this potential problem:
