A Macbook Air has no trouble pulling an IDE and an application server, although I don't use it as a primary development machine. It's my subjective feeling though that modern ivy-bridge ultrabooks with an SSD, are now fast enough to support most development tasks. In a way Intel confirms this by making the upcoming successor architecture (Haswell) favor a reduction of TDP (17W -> 10W) rather than performance.
