i'm weighing this myself; i run logic on a late-2008 macbook, no problems. i do my audio recording at a studio, post-production and mixing on my macbook (4gig ram).
when i price out my needs, a new 13"macbook pro and 13" macbook air come to the same amount. the pro, of course, would have 8gigs ram, and more storage space.
the ONLY thing holding me back from the air is the idea that, by september, we'll see new pros that go even further...
but good to hear your experiences! i love mobile, and the idea of an air in my backpack is worth considering...
how long do you think the flash drive would last if your only doing midi and soft synths with no audio. 2 years at least? also when u say record midi to a sd card do u mean saving the songs and does the sd card slow things down
And what about the new ones?
Now with i5 and i7 processors and 4GB by default could be a very good laptop for travel producing...
What do you think about 128GB or 256GB of SSD?
Logic Pro and some plugin instruments will have enough space in a 128GB solid drive?

after a lot of investigating, am going for the 13" macbook pro. 8 gigs of ram is a good idea...
if you ARE going for an air, get the 256G drive; 128 is cutting it close (especially if you're using apple loops, other soundsets.
better to have more room than to be running out...
same here i was looking at the macbook air 13 but ended up getting the 15" macbook pro. for a hundred dollars more its a pretty easy decision. more cores more space and more ram. im running logic off of the 5400 internal drive with an external 7200 drive and it more then suits my needs as a sketch pad. ram was the only thing that stopped me from getting the macbook air as i prefer more ram
