A little background. I am a video editor and motion graphics artist. I used to bring my MBP to clients offices for quick work but now I have no need to do that. For the last couple of years I have done all my work on my MP.
So now, my laptop has been relegated to being used for email, web surfing, RAW photo editing, Photoshop and the occasional launching of After Effects (this one only a couple times a year if that).
Seriously, I am using a pre-unibody 2.4 C2D MBP and it is just now starting to get long in the tooth. I assume a machine 5 years newer will smoke this thing even if it is a "lesser" model. Will an Air be able to do what I ask of it? I haven't touched one since the very first version (which sucked) and I know they made leaps and bounds, but how capable are they?
Thanks!
