As far s Mac v PC...I switched a to a MacAir when it first came out and have NO regrets at all. There definitely was a learning curve involved but still very happy I do not have the headaches of dealing with a PC.
The MacAir isn't for everyone but for all the traveling we do it is simply the best as far as portability. I have no problems with expense reports or flight plan releases with FireFox, very simply. I use to be able to access the Green Screen with a program call Flip-for-Mac but after the company changed the bit encryption I no longer can.
As far the USB port goes I've never had trouble connecting to the internet (with the pigtail of course) and bought a 4 port splitter ($9.95 eBay) and can connect to the internet, use my external HD, charge my phone and connect my camera all at the same time.
You can go on and on about pro's and con but for me personally I give my MacAir two big thumbs up.
