Nice! How do you like Lion so far?

It's decent - not excessively superior to Snow Leopard. EOS Utility doesn't work under Lion, but I don't really use it (and my 17" MBP is still running Snow Leopard, for now). The biggest change is the keystroke shortcuts for some of the quick access tools, e.g. the dashboard.

If gaming wasn't still an interest of mine.... i imagine that a Mac computer might interest me more, but as it stands, I just like building and tweaking, and huge cases, lights, fans.... etc.
And... I just purchased a MONSTER of a computer for roughly the same price as that Mac Air.
I just can't take it on the road or on the couch with me.... though I do have a very comfy chair.

Some nice choices there. This build should really speed up your soltaire game :) and do a good job on video and photo editing as well----I am confident you will have the baddest box on the block---Congrats
