Choke - Bear in mind the Air has no optical drive (no CD/DVD) so if you need to read media in that format, load apps, etc. you'll need an external drive of some type. If you only need it to load stuff that's one thing, but if you travel a good bit, like to watch DVDs in flight, etc. that may be an issue.

I still haven't made it to a Mac store... Not enough time in the day.

But I'm going at lunch...

My only concern is lack of integration with a bunch of must have apps that I use daily. I love the concept of this laptop however.

Someone tell me about booting into an MS environment. Is there any drawback? Complicated to do daily?

I have a macbook that I use VMWare Fusion (like Parallels) and it runs fine. I use it for Excel, etc. Bootcamp could become a pain IMO. Fusion/Parallels let you run a mac window side by side with an XP/vista/whatever window.
