While my computer got fixed in the Shop I worked on my 13" MacBookAir. And in this time I also tried how good games do run on the Air. Games like Left 4 Dead 2, World of Warcraft or Modern Warfare 2 did run smothly without any problems. I couldn't run the grafics on high details, but on medium - for such a small machine without a real grafic card, that performance isn't too bad, i think.
wow what a joke.. mac is now only able to play crysis.. a game that windows could run years ago... i doubt mac is able to run battlefield 3 or all the new games from 2011 that has beast graphics
I'd like someone to explain why mac is better then PC. I'd really like to hear some "logic" on it. Because in my mind they're a bunch of stuck up douchebags with overpriced products.
You can run mac os x AND windows on a mac. You can only run windows on a PC. So a mac can also be a PC :)
As a sidenote, mac OS X is far more advanced than windows. Windows always freezes, gets errors, has weird settings, you have to install tons and tons of programs, drivers, etc. before you can use it.
A mac knows everything straight out of the box, you don't need to install weird drivers, codecs etc.
under the hood, OS X vs win, is like alien tech vs. stones &sticks
@adam10603 I have been using both a good amount of time and theres basicly no difference in performance on any application (with a few exceptions of bad ports). Both OS's are equal on equal hardware.
As far as I know, you will only need a codec for xvid avi files on macs.
But anyway, I find a mac to be a lot easier to use in everyday tasks such as surfing the internet, managing your pictures/videos. I also have a mac and a PC as well.
Windows is a lot more old-fashioned. In windows 7, you have pretty icons, some minor refinements, but basically it works the same way as windows always did. A mac is much more revolutionary, in my opinion. It brings a more quailty expreience.
The best way to go, if you want to play games, plus have a mac for your everyday tasks, is to buy a midrange gaming PC, plus a relatively cheap mac.
You don't need a GTX590 or so, BF3 also runs excellent on my GTX460. Considering that, build a PC that will run the newest games with no problem, but still relatively cheap. Then, buy a cheap mac, let's say, those mac minis with core2duo + 9400M are good but cheap. The two cost actually less then just one mac which can also play games.
It's not just the ram that makes it run smoothly, it's the SSD, I have 8GB of ram on my MacBook pro and it still lags sometimes... And also, correct me if I'm wrong but windows runs very well on bootcamp?
@buffalowingdoritodud it's purely because of market share. More windows computers = more games for them. (kinda like the counter-argument PC fanboys make about the viruses). This is gradually changing as more and more people are buying Macs, so more developers are making games for Macs.
i have a question... i know that the gt320m is different from 320m.. but, my laptop has the gt320m, and i'm wondering why i can't run it this smoothly...?
i love playing star craft 2 on my Mac Air fans do kick out a lot thought but for it size and specs i feel this laptop shouldn't be able to play these games this well but it dose so im goin to buy windows 7 now and see some performance i get with a bit of over clocking lol
@ilovetodayy So i guess you would ask the same thing for IPAD users. The ones who plays this on AIR is the ones who can! If it is able why not?
Why is it pointless? Just because its pointless to you? I guess your ideas and thinking is the standard by which everything is based so if its pointless to you then by all means we must just forget i! Well for one I would play anyone on any system I was able to play it on Nuff said!
Am not a apple fan boy.. i consider that best products of apple are iPod, iPad and Air.. i feel zune hd is cheap and better than ipod and ipad has lots of competition now by samsung, lg, blackberry and all that.. the unbeatable is the macbook air.. the laptop so light with huge performance.. i would buy this tiny beast for sure..
Alright first of all, why would you want to play Crisis on a 11" screen? You should be playing it on a 20"+ or a PC laptop that is 17" and definitely not on a MacBook nor Mac.
@doom9595 Why would you want to play Crysis on a 20" screen? You should be playing it on a 65" HDTV. You see how stupid that argument is? And why wouldn't you play it on a Macbook Air or a Mac? It obviously runs fine.
@Xaqtly Ok for a 65"... WHY in the world do you need a screen that big. If you had a powerful computer it will still have low FPS because of the size of the screen and to many pixels that a PC can handle.
@doom9595 I play my Wii, N64 and PS3 on my 61" TV. Do you seriously need me to explain why I need a screen that big? My point was that your screen size argument was idiotic.
@Xaqtly I was just saying why would you play Crysis on a 11inch laptop when you can play it on like a 20inch or bigger NOT JUST 20INCHES 20 inches or MORE. More is the keyword people or how i said in my last comment 20"+. You see that + sign that means 20" or MORE. Thank you and have a nice day. O yes a N64 on a 61inch REALLY BRO the graphics already suck why do you want to see sucky graphics on a 61inch.
@doom9595 Why would you play it on a 20" screen when you can play it on a 60" screen? Same question, same answer. If you're too stupid to figure out, I can't help you. Oh and the N64 graphics look the same regardless of the screen size. You are really not smart enough to be having this conversation.
@Xaqtly Hmm lets see umm i dont know i can make myself any clearer for you to understand but umm I know you can play crysis on a 60" but what im trying to figure out is how are you going have a decent frame rate on a 60 inch, and dont be smartass by saying umm maybe you can put 2 graphics cards because its not going to help all that much and you would be spending to much money. O ya about the N64 ITS NOT MEANT FOR A 60inch you prick and the pixels will be to big and make it look crappy.
@doom9595 So what you're saying is that you don't understand that physical size is not the same thing as resolution. I'm not surprised, you seem kind of stupid. And if an N64 is NOT MEANT for a 60" then why am I able to play Perfect Dark on mine? Oh right maybe because it's the console that determines the resolution of the game, not the TV. Hurr durr derp. Also, maybe you should read up on viewing distances and how that affects visual perception.
@doom9595 At least I know how to spell "you're". And yes, I'm a prick because you're a dumbass that knows nothing about TVs, computers or resolution. Like that's somehow my fault for pointing it out. You being stupid somehow makes me a prick, I like that logic.
@Xaqtly I love you man :) I'm just fuking around im bored but ya "you're" you can see that i was just messing around if i was really paying any attention to piss you off hardcore i would be speeliing it withs outs no problems ims fuckings around with yas man.
@iAppleseedy I know there "powerful" and all that but what im saying is you can build your own for the same price as a Mac and get double the FPS and double the fun. Macs are more for like business and movie making and stuff. Also don't say that Steam is now for the Mac and has become a gaming computer. Until i see pigs fly and that Mac is cheaper with good specs then i could welcome it to the gaming community.
i have a pc and had a mac and im sick of people who never owned a mac but say you can game on a mac and who say pc's are better for work . its just the other way . and yeeah im pretty much a gamer thats why i have my pc <3 :] :D
@seantal007 But, I can bring my computer any wheres I want and play Crysis in a tree ;) This is a laptop, you can't compare a desktop to a laptop. Desktops are always cheaper with much better performance compared to laptops. :)
@kartman415 shut the fuck up faggot. Cant you see that they have done something with the video before they posted it on youtube. Think smart you dummy shit. How can this tiny crapy computer make up with crysis??
I have downloaded just cause 2 on my 2008 macbook via steam and it works nearly perfect in the citys it lags a bit but it is a real good feeling to play !!!!
also..mr " it plays a 3 year old game at low settings ..hmmm" not everyone is mr. ritchie rich. For some people the whole tech gaming rat race is too fast..and guess what..keeping up with the absolute latest and greatest is NOT a priority. THEY BUY when they can. stop being so spoiled rotten thinking that if something can play a game that the game HAS TO BE BRAND NEW. ftr. crysis 2 ISN'T EVEN PROGRAMMED FOR DX 11.lol=EPIC FAIL. neither is Starcraft 2. be thankful for what you have.
with name like purpleacid..sounds like that's about the only intelligent conversational defense you can muster after all that acid you may have done earlier in life. Any man that incoherently changes the subject that he is being defeated in do a dick measurement contest obviously has little pecker depression. Like a bully that has fuck with people to feel better about himself instead of simple constructively resolving his own problems because it's easier. STOP ACTING LIKE THE PRESIDENTS & GOV.
and djpurpleacid, wtf was point of that retareded 5th grader pathetic excuse for a comeback on an arguement you were obviously losing? i mean if you have to resort to a dick waving contest..then you're not different than most fo the presidents america has had since Carter. one big red white and blue dick waving contest..( they have bigger DICKS...BOMB THEM!). I have more important intelligent things to compare than dick sizes. dicks are for urinating and sex. that's it. nothing special
ok..perhaps a few people here are forgetting something.THE AIR is NOT meant to the equivalent of a desktop computer with a 8800gt or 9800gt 512mb video card, 4 gig ddr 800 ram, it's meant to be slightly more powerful than your run-of-the-mill 10 inch netbook and meant for more portability ( much lighter than most netbooks, easier to handle and deal with etc). im inpressed that it can handle crysis personally. that means it can handle cod4, Wow perhaps Cata, maaaaybe Starcraft 2? cheers Eric
@ruisantosparente for it's intented purposes. yes. much lighter than every notebook pc out there..hell same weight or lighter than some netbooks. Yeah i'm not too high and mighty to admit it: it's light, fast, very mobile, low battery, when was the last time you saw crysis ran well at ANY settings on an onboard gpu? on a regular pc? NEVER. yeah price is alot higher versus hardware percentage performance difference, but it's about what most can do with it. worthy price? $850 for new.
@ruisantosparente *ftr typing this on custom built win 7 pr 64 machine and still use it every day love it and i dont even own the Air yet*. Also, you're forgetting another thing. yeah Jobs brags about the experience but honestly the 4 years straight i have owned a ipod classic and macbook pro i have NEVER had any problems out of either. Apple tech support (american CLEAR english speaking btw) answered all my questions hassle free. Can u say that about hp, dell, Asus, Msi, even Acer? NOPE.
@ruisantosparente and btw if you're going to compare excellent pricing differences...many decent netbooks are now between 250 to 300 it's called newegg .com it's funny when people show their jealousy or just plain immaturity when they diss on a product that performs much better than they wanted it to or they thought it could. Until you own a mac. you won't realize that difference in price is easily combated by many great things. Garage band is 1 of the 30 imo. Haven't found that on pc yet.
@ruisantosparente furthermore. apple's software ( although not crashproof NOTHING is) and hardware to a 75% extent or more,is made by them. So if there's a problem THEY KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. There isn't this bs hassle like " well the psu is dead and we dont make it we're just the sales vendor, but we can replace it for a fee". they know their products, they have excellent customer service and tech support, the software is MADE to work on their products so overall it's a dependable experience.
@ruisantosparente YES I am impressed, moron. There is NO windows based 11" or 12" netbook EVEN STILL TODAY that can run crysis better than the mba regardless of the netbook's price. Also if you're only comparing that based on price, then you're a bigger idiot than you have yet revealed yourself to be. No one in their right mind buys a mba for MODERN TRUE gaming anyways unless they think it's the year 2003 and they'll need to be put in a mental hospital. mba's main purposes dont involve gaming
@chronofusion have you seen the alienware mllx. just correcting you on my mba to let u know im not trolling.anyways, its not ultaportable EVER can compete with the MBA in size, graphics, hdd space and price. only cpu power in the case of the series 9. strange how MACS!!! are beginning to outperform pcs in gaming for the first time in history
@WarpeaceWar6 ok you totally confused me. you claim you are " correcting " me? and then " it's not ultraportable EVER can compete with MBA? wtf. we're not in grammar class but one of your sentences didn't make sense.
@chronofusion /trollface. its cause there are plenty of 11 inch computers that can out power the air. The alienware is an example of a tiny computer with a 1gb graphics card. However, there is no ultraportable that can out power it. That is a computer thats under .7 inches thick. This is a super powerful computer but there are stronger ones, just not in its particular catagory
@WarpeaceWar6 /FUCKTARD incase you can't fucking read I was being polite to you in the previous message. Since you want to be a fucktard, then you now getting treated like one. " LOOK AT ME..I GOTTA 1-UP everyone or act like a child" i dont care moron. get over it. get a life. move on. you're not special. if you want to buy a product that has outsourced call center support ( dabb dabba language speaking hindus) that's your problem. I learned from that mistake back in 2001 and never again
@chronofusion i don't own an alienware. they are crap computers. My friend has one and it just doesnt appeal to me. And i didn't even get any thumbs so i don't see how that works. And i don't deserve thumbs commenting about dell on an apple video. I'm agreeing with you. The air is the most powerfull in its catagory. The porblem is that its not the strongest 11 inch computer. Its the strongest 11 inch at about half an inch thick.
@ruisantosparente mac osx Lion arrives july & is 29.99 upgrade direct download. Why does that matter? Lion has been designed to handle more graphically intense gpu operations NATIVELY than the previous mac o.s.'s. Thus also MAYBE no need for running a game in parallels using win 7. yeah duh, of course if I want as close as I can afford to the BEST gaming experience to play crysis games with it WILL be my win 7 gtx 580 ddr3 1600mhz 8 gig ram, 4 core sandy bridge 2600k cpu, custom built pc.
@chronofusion I WANT LION!!!!!!! im killing myself. poeple say that its a cheap update but look up changes in windows 7 on wikipedia. theres no more than 250 and majority are drivers. M$ just redesigns a few parts of the os and people think that its brand new. Apple comes out with revolutionary-desktop will never be the same again- changes but they keep the look of the os so poeple think they arent trying. Sad.
@WarpeaceWar6 well the changes that are mentioned in the keynote about Lion from june 2011 are not " revolutionary" because some of them were already in ios4 for either the iphone or ipad2. Lion is " evolutionary" which there isn't anything wrong with that. It's just improving on something great and long overdue. Win 7 to me is awesome overall. it is what VISTA was SUPPOSE to be.
@SuperDeluxe80 windows 7= aero snap for $250. Don't get me wrong thats a great feature but the rest is in the background. When apple did that much of a minor change they kept the leopard name and sold for $29. Lion has more new features than either snow leopard or lion brought.
linux=complicated os with almost no support. It is original but so is apple. apparently even installing takes a lot of research on linux. Apple is the only company that can make unix at all simple. like linux though
@SuperDeluxe80 well then please elaborate for me cause im clearly missing something. please name one feature in windows 7 over vista that isn't in the background and isnt the new taskbar. All of windows 7 was in the bacground. 7=background=$250...same as the revolutionary xp. snowleaopard=background=cheapest upgrade ever. windows 7 was a rip and just changed the look to make people feel it was major. It really wasn't.
@SuperDeluxe80 Thanks for that bit of info but is this to complament or dis os x. It seems to be quite positive and apparently becoming an industry standard for unix os's but either way...ya
@WarpeaceWar6 aye i would have to agree although i prefer linux because i find it easy to use and therefore dont really need a mac. Linux aslo is more customizable. Still i am dragged by windows when it comes to gaming though =\
@JerrySSnipes Linux is great and its rock solid with no viruses. It is a good os. But i agree that i often use my friends windows pc to play games like crysis. Best game ever. It was that one game that made it hard for me to switch to a mac. lousy 90% market share and dx11. Why must you make it so hard to own my computer!!!
@WarpeaceWar6 Windows 7 was a vast improvement over Vista, Even IIS and the search was faster, though I had no problems with vista besides a bug in the network connections menu. Windows 7 is just a bit faster with easier and newer features, not to mention programs run faster on Windows 7.
@Vrism1337 a friend of mine owns the 13 ' MB air. Cataclysm has to be put on all low settings except view distance can be on medium for it to run at 40+ fps all most times ( i REFUSE to play any game that is modern day like Wow, Crysis's, Metro Sc2, etc at less than 40 fps unless it's just the occasionally dips due to hardcore action). considering such a small form faction of a computer..this is pretty decent to me. The macbook pro 17" I bought early this year will play it full hd rez, medium.
@Vrism1337 he tried bootcamp. He's currently using the latest version of Parallels. he gets slightly worse results regardless of the update patches, desktop gui settings, and in game settings he tries when using bootcamp. and yes it was bootcamp using win 7 home premium 64 bit. he's also tried 32 bit, and win 7 pro 64 ( which is what i use for my custom built desktop gaming machine). *shruggs shoulders* parallels is his best bet. i mean hey..it's an air not a mb pro. not bad though.
lol that was on like lowest settings but that runs nice on there. I like seeing how games run on low intergrated GPUs. Crysis plays really good on almost that engone scales really good.
You're better off with the 13" max spec version with the 1.86GHz processor and 4GB RAM. Turn on SMC fan control, turn all settings to high but set shadows to medium, and you'll get a constant 30FPS with some frame rate drops down to 20 during action packed scenes. It's kind of like playing Crysis 2 on PS3 or 360. Haha! Burn. CwutIdidthar?
hate when people dont tell u the settings they play at.... its like saying yeah my connections fast cause i watched a youtube video in 240p the other day and it didn't buffer once...
If you wanna have an Mac because of having, buy one, if you want because of look, get Windows 7, install a theme, iTunes and Safary and then be happy...
@AraknidVideoTests you do realize that you could stack 3 macbook airs on top of each other and they would still be thinner and weigh less than the m11x right?

@doom9595 No, even a the biggest screens almost always run at 1080p the size of the screen has no impact on game performance, only the resolution.

@doom9595 I play my Wii, N64 and PS3 on my 61" TV. Do you seriously need me to explain why I need a screen that big? My point was that your screen size argument was idiotic.
Xaqtly 6 months ago
@Xaqtly I was just saying why would you play Crysis on a 11inch laptop when you can play it on like a 20inch or bigger NOT JUST 20INCHES 20 inches or MORE. More is the keyword people or how i said in my last comment 20"+. You see that + sign that means 20" or MORE. Thank you and have a nice day. O yes a N64 on a 61inch REALLY BRO the graphics already suck why do you want to see sucky graphics on a 61inch.
doom9595 6 months ago
@doom9595 Why would you play it on a 20" screen when you can play it on a 60" screen? Same question, same answer. If you're too stupid to figure out, I can't help you. Oh and the N64 graphics look the same regardless of the screen size. You are really not smart enough to be having this conversation.
Xaqtly 6 months ago
@Xaqtly Hmm lets see umm i dont know i can make myself any clearer for you to understand but umm I know you can play crysis on a 60" but what im trying to figure out is how are you going have a decent frame rate on a 60 inch, and dont be smartass by saying umm maybe you can put 2 graphics cards because its not going to help all that much and you would be spending to much money. O ya about the N64 ITS NOT MEANT FOR A 60inch you prick and the pixels will be to big and make it look crappy.
doom9595 6 months ago
@doom9595 So what you're saying is that you don't understand that physical size is not the same thing as resolution. I'm not surprised, you seem kind of stupid. And if an N64 is NOT MEANT for a 60" then why am I able to play Perfect Dark on mine? Oh right maybe because it's the console that determines the resolution of the game, not the TV. Hurr durr derp. Also, maybe you should read up on viewing distances and how that affects visual perception.

Macs are more for like business and movie making and stuff. Also don't say that Steam is now for the Mac and has become a gaming computer. Until i see pigs fly and that Mac is cheaper with good specs then i could welcome it to the gaming community.

ok..perhaps a few people here are forgetting something.THE AIR is NOT meant to the equivalent of a desktop computer with a 8800gt or 9800gt 512mb video card, 4 gig ddr 800 ram, it's meant to be slightly more powerful than your run-of-the-mill 10 inch netbook and meant for more portability ( much lighter than most netbooks, easier to handle and deal with etc). im inpressed that it can handle crysis personally. that means it can handle cod4, Wow perhaps Cata, maaaaybe Starcraft 2? cheers Eric

@ruisantosparente for it's intented purposes. yes. much lighter than every notebook pc out there..hell same weight or lighter than some netbooks. Yeah i'm not too high and mighty to admit it: it's light, fast, very mobile, low battery, when was the last time you saw crysis ran well at ANY settings on an onboard gpu? on a regular pc? NEVER. yeah price is alot higher versus hardware percentage performance difference, but it's about what most can do with it. worthy price? $850 for new.

@ruisantosparente *ftr typing this on custom built win 7 pr 64 machine and still use it every day love it and i dont even own the Air yet*. Also, you're forgetting another thing. yeah Jobs brags about the experience but honestly the 4 years straight i have owned a ipod classic and macbook pro i have NEVER had any problems out of either. Apple tech support (american CLEAR english speaking btw) answered all my questions hassle free. Can u say that about hp, dell, Asus, Msi, even Acer? NOPE.
chronofusion 10 months ago
@ruisantosparente and btw if you're going to compare excellent pricing differences...many decent netbooks are now between 250 to 300 it's called newegg .com it's funny when people show their jealousy or just plain immaturity when they diss on a product that performs much better than they wanted it to or they thought it could. Until you own a mac. you won't realize that difference in price is easily combated by many great things. Garage band is 1 of the 30 imo. Haven't found that on pc yet.
chronofusion 10 months ago
@ruisantosparente furthermore. apple's software ( although not crashproof NOTHING is) and hardware to a 75% extent or more,is made by them. So if there's a problem THEY KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. There isn't this bs hassle like " well the psu is dead and we dont make it we're just the sales vendor, but we can replace it for a fee". they know their products, they have excellent customer service and tech support, the software is MADE to work on their products so overall it's a dependable experience.
chronofusion 10 months ago
@ruisantosparente YES I am impressed, moron. There is NO windows based 11" or 12" netbook EVEN STILL TODAY that can run crysis better than the mba regardless of the netbook's price. Also if you're only comparing that based on price, then you're a bigger idiot than you have yet revealed yourself to be. No one in their right mind buys a mba for MODERN TRUE gaming anyways unless they think it's the year 2003 and they'll need to be put in a mental hospital. mba's main purposes dont involve gaming

@chronofusion have you seen the alienware mllx. just correcting you on my mba to let u know im not trolling.anyways, its not ultaportable EVER can compete with the MBA in size, graphics, hdd space and price. only cpu power in the case of the series 9. strange how MACS!!! are beginning to outperform pcs in gaming for the first time in history

@chronofusion /trollface. its cause there are plenty of 11 inch computers that can out power the air. The alienware is an example of a tiny computer with a 1gb graphics card. However, there is no ultraportable that can out power it. That is a computer thats under .7 inches thick. This is a super powerful computer but there are stronger ones, just not in its particular catagory

And i don't deserve thumbs commenting about dell on an apple video. I'm agreeing with you. The air is the most powerfull in its catagory. The porblem is that its not the strongest 11 inch computer. Its the strongest 11 inch at about half an inch thick.

@ruisantosparente mac osx Lion arrives july & is 29.99 upgrade direct download. Why does that matter? Lion has been designed to handle more graphically intense gpu operations NATIVELY than the previous mac o.s.'s. Thus also MAYBE no need for running a game in parallels using win 7. yeah duh, of course if I want as close as I can afford to the BEST gaming experience to play crysis games with it WILL be my win 7 gtx 580 ddr3 1600mhz 8 gig ram, 4 core sandy bridge 2600k cpu, custom built pc.
chronofusion 8 months ago
@chronofusion I WANT LION!!!!!!! im killing myself. poeple say that its a cheap update but look up changes in windows 7 on wikipedia. theres no more than 250 and majority are drivers. M$ just redesigns a few parts of the os and people think that its brand new. Apple comes out with revolutionary-desktop will never be the same again- changes but they keep the look of the os so poeple think they arent trying. Sad.
WarpeaceWar6 8 months ago
@WarpeaceWar6 well the changes that are mentioned in the keynote about Lion from june 2011 are not " revolutionary" because some of them were already in ios4 for either the iphone or ipad2. Lion is " evolutionary" which there isn't anything wrong with that. It's just improving on something great and long overdue. Win 7 to me is awesome overall. it is what VISTA was SUPPOSE to be.

@SuperDeluxe80 windows 7= aero snap for $250. Don't get me wrong thats a great feature but the rest is in the background. When apple did that much of a minor change they kept the leopard name and sold for $29. Lion has more new features than either snow leopard or lion brought.
linux=complicated os with almost no support. It is original but so is apple. apparently even installing takes a lot of research on linux. Apple is the only company that can make unix at all simple. like linux though

@WarpeaceWar6 Windows 7 was a vast improvement over Vista, Even IIS and the search was faster, though I had no problems with vista besides a bug in the network connections menu. Windows 7 is just a bit faster with easier and newer features, not to mention programs run faster on Windows 7.

Cataclysm has to be put on all low settings except view distance can be on medium for it to run at 40+ fps all most times ( i REFUSE to play any game that is modern day like Wow, Crysis's, Metro Sc2, etc at less than 40 fps unless it's just the occasionally dips due to hardcore action). considering such a small form faction of a computer..this is pretty decent to me. The macbook pro 17" I bought early this year will play it full hd rez, medium.

@Vrism1337 he tried bootcamp. He's currently using the latest version of Parallels. he gets slightly worse results regardless of the update patches, desktop gui settings, and in game settings he tries when using bootcamp. and yes it was bootcamp using win 7 home premium 64 bit. he's also tried 32 bit, and win 7 pro 64 ( which is what i use for my custom built desktop gaming machine). *shruggs shoulders* parallels is his best bet. i mean hey..it's an air not a mb pro. not bad though.
