As the title asks, what do you think of the new 2 lb. all metal MacBook? Specifically, your initial impressions.
Want...
Very nice. My concern is the keyboard ending right at the edges on both sides which would take some getting used to.
I was impressed at the (lack there of) thickness. The retina display. But that processor gets in the way of getting my money. Looks like I am going to purchase a new macbook air (or pro 13") with the updated processors.
Do you think that the new device will underperform with the specs it comes with, specifically the processor?

Core M is kinda weak
I don't think so but I guess it depends on what one is doing. I can run Logic Pro on my MBA 11 inch flawlessly with 60 tracks with power to spare. I'm sure the New MacBook can do it and more.

I don't have a MacBook but want to get one for Logic Pro and Final Cut. Interesting that you can run Logic on an Air without issue as everyone seems to be saying the MacBook Pro is the one for that.
I do like the Gold MacBook but the lack of more ports is a huge turn off for me and renders the unit useless. I need an absolute minimum of two USB ports for the peripherals I have.
I even put 30 instances of Space Designer Reverb on the session just to see if the processor would spike and it didn't. It hit the halfway mark.
All of this was on the MBA internal 128 SSD.
There are vids on YouTube of guys playing huge Protools session on the MBA 2011.
I got my MBA just for internet stuff and some lightweight Garage Band stuff but I was shocked what it did with Logic Pro. With the MBP you can probably go nuts with it.
