Hi, I am currently deciding between the 11 or 13 Inch:

Does anyone know if the MBA 11 can run CS5 Design Premium?

yes it can, but don't wish to work on 4000x4000 pixels images in PS.

anyway get the 13" since more real estate is nice for doing any kind of graphic jobs, and get the 4GB memory too.

I'll be getting the 13" for the 1440x900 resolution.

Going from a 15" MBP (early 2008) so there won't be any real-estate lost.

I would recommend the MBA 11 plus a large external desk monitor, which depending on the monitor quality, may be no more than the cost of the 13.

Well I have a 22" Display allready, I was just worried because the Adobe site states in the System requirements for the

CS5 Design Premium 1280x800 and the

11 inch has 1366 x 768


I checked all Products inside the Adobe suite and the all stated:

1024x768 except for

Dreamweaver 1280x800

and

Fireworks 1280x1024


The question that remains is:
If I plug the 11" into the 22"-Monitor will I be able to install and work with the Design Premium?

Answer is yes.
