> Does anyone on the LUG have experience using the 11" MacBook Air? Comments?

I've had one for about a month now. When my 15-inch MacBook Pro died, I 
replaced it with the 11-inch MacBook Air.

I love it. I have CS4 installed on it, and I find that it is plenty fast 
enough to run Photoshop. It doesn't have the largest disk in the world, but 
it's got two USB connectors so it's easy to plug a camera into one and a 
16-gig jump drive into the other and then use Bridge to copy pictures to the 
jump drive when I've done the needed triage on the MacBook Air.

I don't think I will ever again buy a laptop with an actual hard drive in it.
