I'm in a similar situation. I commute 3 hours each day on mass transit and love the Air in those situations, but I do miss the processor power.

I happen to have a pretty beefy PC at home, so I just RDC into that for my Visual Studio and compiler needs (I think I'm one of about seven people who develop .NET on a Mac!)

During what activities do you miss processor power on the Air? or is it just a general lack of responsiveness when booting, opening apps etc. and what is your processor?

Mostly waiting for Parallels to spin up and compiling in Visual Studio. I have the 1.8 i7.
