Eh before you get Air, think about your usage. You will notice that it lacks alot of ports (which explains the air-ness). Personally super inconvenient!

Mouse takes up one port, unless you have wireless. USB thumbdrive for transfer of work stuff. Card reader for pictures? Too beautiful for real usage, I feel.

Y dun you consider getting a Macbook Pro. hehe... am eyeing on one...
For Macbook Air... the main disadvantages is the lack of USB port and the harddisk size (80GB only). Got a friend who own one... in the end, he is carrying losa accessories on top of the lappy itself.. Advantages is chio bah...
