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

yea the macbook pro only has firewire 800.

The firewire situation with the new refresh of the notebooks has me frustrated.

For now I don't have to worry because I still have a black macbook that does what I need it to do. My daily machine is a mac pro which has been such a nice upgrade from the g4 I was using before.

I am drooling over the new monitors though. That will have to wait though. Have a bunch of other stuff I need purchase before a new monitor really becomes something I can get.
