Jason Snell has spend the retiring hebdomad with the radical - flimsy notebook — see for his review at Macworld.com later Wednesday — and he joins Macworld.com executive editor in chief Philip Michaels , senior news editor program Jonathan Seff , and Macworld Lab director James Galbraith for a roundtable give-and-take about what ’s to like and what ’s not to wish about the MacBook Air .
But first , I call on my attending toanothertech trade show — PMA , the major gathering of the professional picture taking industriousness . FrequentMacworldcontributor Ben Long joins me for a PMA preview .

Show Notes
In my round - up of the week ’s news , I spend some time on the Apple TV update announced at Expo ; that software program update is ship this week , and I plan to be up my initial first spirit with a more hands - on analytic thinking of the update , once it arrive . In the meantime , believe this equivalence of my pre - Expo wishlist for the Apple idiot box and what Apple actually delivered .
In my PMA word with Ben Long , we mention the Canon - vs.-Nikon and Aperture - vs.-Lightroom debate that typically accompany photo trade shows . Rick LePage has addressed both the Nikon - Canon and Aperture - Lightroom debates inMacworldarticles .
There have already been a couple of digital - camera announcements in feeler of PMA , including the Nikon D60 , six new Coolpix models , four new PowerShots and the EOS Rebel XSi DSLR from Canon , and many other releases covered at our Cameras mathematical product center . Our fellow atPC Worldalso have a page devote toPMA news .
