O, attum CPUs can go up to, if i'm not mistaken, a duel core 1.8 ghz. the reason they're slower is because of them being more power efficient, and having less cache than average CPU's.

Vocational Rehabilitation purchased it for me. However, my MacBook, which I have a virtual machine running XP as well as a Bootcamp installation of XP, is perfect for me. The only thing I use windows for though is the occasional web site where Safari crashes or refuses to load content I know should be there, and sound editing and playing MUDs. TTPlusPlus works through the terminal, but there's no way to get rid of the ascii art that I can find, and reviewing text output is a little clunky. I hope to eventually migrate sound editing over to the Mac, but honestly have not had the time to sit down and learn a whole new program, especially one as complex as a DAW.
I have never owned a NetBook and most likely never will. I did not realize that the Air ran a Duel Core processor. I guess I thought that something so small couldn't house one. I'm glad it does, as that is much faster than the Atom processors, which are apparently just now reaching speeds of 1.00 GHZ.

correct, and, also, remember with a netbook, you'd have to pay for the screen reader along with the computer. Also, don't forget you'd be running windows which presents it's own set of challenges. I wouldn't want a netbook after being a mac user, but that's just my opinion."Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower", Steve Jobs On Oct 23, 2010, at 8:34 PM, Linnette Whalen wrote:This is absolutely correct.

I did that because of price and things like that. Now that I have one I wonder if I should have gone aslightly different direction. The mini does meet my needs since youdefinitely need a monitor connected to it for efficient use either an Imac or a Macbook probably would have done even better. Price wise the newest Macbook Air, entry price $999 even though it has less storage and memory than some of the others may well be a good choice. That would also give youthe advantage of a built-in trackpad which may well be a good thing.
