Here is my situation:
Just received my MacBook Air 11 last week and I absolutely love it. The only downside so far is the editing power. I didn't expect much going in, but I can't even playback SD video in Quicktime, much less HD video without the video stuttering badly.
I bought the MBAir to use on the go, around the house, traveling, etc (I still use a Windows desktop for main computer/gaming). I didn't anticipate any heavy editing at first, but it seems as though I might be heading down that path.
I am thinking about returning the MBAir to Amazon in exchange for the 13 inch base MBPro.
How is the video editing experience on that model? Fast, smooth video playback, any heat issues? Anyone use Final Cut Express with it?
Thanks!
