Just ordered the new 13' Macbook Air with the config below. Will this be a good upgrade from a 2007 Black Macbook 2.4 GHz 4GB RAM? Will I see a big difference in speeds? Thanks!

2.0GHz Intel Dual-Core Core i7
8GB 1600MHz DDR3L SDRAM
256GB Flash Storage
 
It'll probably be twice as fast in many task. Most of the difference you'll notice will be from the SSD. Otherwise in day-to-day use, the fast processor and increased RAM will be a good boost as well.

Congrats BTW.
