I wonder if anyone could give any opinions of their use of VisualHub on a MacBook Air. I'm considering getting one (1.6/80) to replace my rev A MacBook Pro. Visual Hub is the only 'heavy duty' app that I use that I haven't been able to test at the Apple store.

Thanks!

EDIT: Oh - and HandBrake :)

Haven't used VisualHub, but Handbrake works great on the Air. You give up a few FPS in terms of rate of encoding (compared to say a MB or MBP) but it does work just fine.

Hey, I use both programs on my 1.6/80 and I have no problems....

Can't give an air based response but I do run VisualHub on my core solo mini and the speeds are reasonable there so the air must blast it!

I guess it really depends on what you call reasonable, maybe someone could give you a few examples! I'd be interested as I may get one to replace my mini.
