> Fine if you're plugged in all the time, but then why do you want a laptop?

I travel between countries a lot, and I can see myself doing that more for the near future. Being able to have just one machine -- rather a powerful desktop workstation and an ultraportable (like the MBA), is one reason I've been considering getting a desktop replacement laptop.

You get to take you work with you, anywhere. It's the alternative I've been considering, if I choose not to go for an MBA.

I sit on my couch with my laptop plugged in all the time. Am I doing it wrong?

So I can sit in a more comfortable chair with the thing on my lap or lap desk. I like having my Tempurpedic adjustable bed up in a comfortable sitting position with my Sager, holy-cow-that's-big-with-terrible-battery-life-but-great-specs laptop as I type listening to Pandora.
