No the macbook air never crossed my mind. But i might have a look and think seriously about a apple desktop computer. The one with a 20" monitor (imac intel core 2 duo 2.66, is that a good one?)
I am new here but thanks for all your quick replies!
Computer inherently aren't "investments", just keep that in mind

When it comes to computers the important things are CPU speed, RAM and video card. The IMac duo 2.66 will do just fine with what you want to do. I currently use a Dell 1.4 duo and can run Adobe Premiere Pro and CS3 just fine.

I would look at the bigger monitors. 20" is nice, but not ideal.
