As I said, perhaps they should call it the Macbook Commute?

The AIR is a possibility but it seems underpowered for the price… I am having trouble relating what I will lose out… I basically want to use the laptop to sit besides anywhere in the house and surf the web, watch clips, manage my music and videos in iTunes, etc…

I am a little down that the new upgrades to the MP do not include the LED upgrade, a backlit keyboard and the touch pad…

Anyhow, congrats on you new MBP.

Everyone lusts after MBA's but no one is BUYING them. The MBA is Apple TV. It won't sell until Take 2. Again proving my point. Everyone lusts after MBA's but no one is BUYING them.
