Have you seen performance benchmarks for the 2010 air vs just the 2011 (which i own btw)?

Personally, i think the 2011 Air is a great machine and offering 8GB on it now is all that needed to be done to keep it a great machine for another year.

But definitely, certainly, the 2010 to 2011 update was important in terms of performance.

I bought Air in January, with 4GB RAM and 265GB SSD. They have upgraded only things that would need an upgrade, machine form factor is perfect (especially if you're on the go nonstop) and battery life extraordinary for that size.
