Why buy a MacBook Pro 15" instead of a MacBook Air?

I would go for the Pro myself:

larger monitor and you can plug it into a decent sized external display
faster cpu, more ram and bigger HD - 120GB is a bit small once you start loading it with media. I hate waiting around for that fucking spinning beach ball of doom.
more USB ports (no ethernet port wtf?!?) - some hardware I have doesn't work so well with a usb dock

sounds like you have your heart set on the air though
