Hi David, I have MacPro as primary machine and Macbook Air as portable machine.....
I have used the MBA at worksites (connected to a 20+" monitors) and its fine.... Issues: Memory..... 2gb get a bit limited, so be careful with what you open Video..... Wont run a 30" monitor (new ones will) Speed is OK.... But Macbooks etc are still faster (In comparisson MBA to MBP (old model)... MBA took double the time to run rails 1000 tests) re: not having DVD drive... probably been an issue once in the last year re: one USB, been an issue a couple of times... Joy of carrying less weight around.... Priceless!
