The air, in order to get the thing intensely slim, it has no drive or ports. They are stepping into the 100% wireless mode, though I don't think the rest of the world is fully there yet.
Personally, if I had a laptop, I want it to burn CDs, DVDs, I want to plug a fat hard drive into it for video work. If a laptop won't do what your desktop version will do, then you're a step backwards.
This
Apple homepage features the Air, and lower down the screen, online tutorials for whatever floats your boat; mixing and producing your own music, editing and creating video, storing, organizing and editing images, making slideshows, web-videos, and then the whole Quicktime world which seems to grow larger by the day.
The Mac is a much more intuitive beast, you can futz and fiddle around and figure things out, context sensitive help and tutorials at your fingertips. All the programs interwork seamlessly with each other, music, video, web, pics, e-mail.
I added Photoshop Elements ($99) so I can create graphics and edit images for you guys, and another program for uploading video to a server. Everything else I needed came internal with the Mac. Everything is built in ready to go.

That was the case in the early days, but really not anymore.
For those who've conquered the PC, I have a great deal of respect for you. It still eludes me to a great deal. That's probably more a problem with me then the PC.
