Who's doing post production work on an MBA - How disappointed will I be?
here's situation. work video producer , use mac pro @ office. @ home, have 17" mbp love. don't game anymore, , videos produce @ home have become few , far between.
has led lusting on switching 11" mba , thunderbolt display primary pc @ home. love idea of having things centralized 1 machine, transformable accomodate pleasing desktop experience , top notch mobility.
biggest concern is, if video project comes @ home, or feel spending rainy sunday in after effects, pulling hair out in frustration, or "fine"? realize mba isn't designed heavy post-production lifting, i'd opinions of use yours editing or graphics on regular or semi-regular basis.
thoughts?
realize major limitation you're stuck @ 4gb of ram maximum. however, processor on new mbas fast. depending on how old mbp (you don't say) mba outperform it. biggest hurdle imagine encounter disk space since on 11" mba you're limited 128gb. however, thunderbolt raid array solve problems , stay connected external display imagine. (or keep footage external harddrive, , put relevant clips on mba's ssd.. don't know workflow or details)
