Will the new Macbook Air with Windows 7 installed be able to run 6 tables of rush poker, table ninja, and hem smoothly?

You should be able to without problems. Just avoid flash apps - they seem not to be optimized on unix based systems so they eat ressources

Can't see that being an issue. 6 tables / HEM / TN isn't a particularly heavy workload for it's relatively little CPU. I'd def. get the 4GB RAM upgrade for only $100.

I have a 11 inch (1.6 upgrade and 4gb ram) and can do it no problem. I can't imagine the stock one having any issues either.

Would you please test something for me? There is a current bug in bootcamp (on my mac book pro) in which the internal mic doesn't function properly in Windows (when run in bootcamp).

If you're using BC, would you mind seing if you can record a video in Camtasia with commentary?

thx alot!

seems performance might be ok with 4gb ram, but what is the max number of side-by-side tables you can fit (and still see) on a 13" screen?
