According to PC Mag, the 1.4Ghz version can play Crysis at medium setting at a decent 25 fps. While hardcore gaming fans would like to see 40fps or above, Apple still manages to offer an excellent all-round multimedia MacBook which covers a significant segment of the ultra-portable crowd. How I wish Apple offers a 256GB flash drive with the 11-incher.

PS: On another note, the test also shows that the Acer/Asus laptop equipped with the ULV i3 chip can do handbrake encoding 4 times faster than MBA 1.4Ghz. I think if Apple decides to remove the SuperDrive from MacBook Pro 13" next year, we will see a bad-ass version of i3 chip with a discrete nVidia 33X. That will be my next MacBook Pro purchase!
