Is there anything out there today with similar specs to the MacBook Air that have been benchmarked? Sure the CPU is smaller than previous 1.6 and 1.8 core 2 duo models, but that doesn't mean it's slower, right? I'm just wondering how well it would run Adobe After Effects or Photoshop CS3. I do realize that this isn't a pro machine, but I won't be using it for this kind of thing very often - I have my Mac Pro at home. I'll be using it for what most people use laptops for: a secondary computer.

Anyway, it would be great if anybody knew about a similar machine with benchmarks, since I know it's impossible to get benchmarks from the actual machine right now. Thanks!
