Well, the lack of processing power concerns me. I have a 2010 Mac Mini and XCode is very sluggish on it.

I have a Core 2 Duo 13″ Macbook Pro. Looking for a new computer as this has been dying! Do you reckon the 13″ i7 model would be a worthy replacement (the only high-intensive work I do is occasional video editing and photoshop)

Sure. Why not?

Would you recommend the new MBA for a person who uses XCode often?

I just saw that commecial on hulu.com

I liked it and understood it right away.

That’s not Pinball, it’s breakout/arkanoid.

I don’t think you are giving people much credit….I understand it just fine…they used stop motion to simulate the old “Brick” game and as it removes blocks it shows the browser…basically it means “use chrome because it removes the clutter and simplifies the web”

Are you serious? The West has more irrelevant, embarrassing and stupid tv commercials than I could even list down in a blog.

And even a 5 year old would understand what the point is in that ad.. One word: “decluttering”. Doh!

While it may be completely irrelevant to what they’re advertising, I think it’s really well done.
I’ve watched it a few times now, and I like it a lot.

Sure, it might not be a great move for Google to spend the money to put this on TV, seeing as it doesn’t get much of a point across, but I think it’s well done, even if it should just remain on the Internet.

my apologies – I went back and looked at the original video – it was _developed_ by Google Japan. So that doesn’t necessarily mean it will air on Japanese tv.

Going back and watching it a second time – I could see, right from the start, how they were “panning” the other browsers – big clunky stuff on the left side of the screen, big bloated thing at the top of the screen.

I think it makes more sense, the more you watch it.
