This article at Ordinary Time blog might be of interest to anyone thinking about using the MacBook Air laptop for video editing using Final Cut Pro. From the article:
"Before you yell - yes, I do understand that this computer is clearly not “designed for” the video professional - but I still think it’s a fair question and no doubt one that will be asked.
