Damn the MacBook Air looks good...

Was looking at the 11" MBA this morning at iStudio (3F Vmall). Gundammit, that machine looks sweet.

Unfortunately I don't think it will be a good purchase for me. Since the components inside it are the same or less, compared to my current acer notebook, except for the SSD of course.

I'm pretty sure I will be miserable if I switch so I am thinking of getting the MBA as a 2nd computer.
