OK. I will do that. Just one potentially dumb question: how do I do bootcamp from an external DVD drive with windows?

bad news: I'm not getting the macbook until thursday :-(

it should auto- detect, if it doesn't you may have some troubleshooting to do. Check out

discussions.apple.com

you can always do it using bonjour as well. There is a way to do it as the macbook air doesn't have a drive and you can boot camp it

Cheers

OK. When using the bonjour way, do I need another mac and be connected to my WLAN? And How do I transfer all my files from my OS X Netbook to my MacBook? someone told me I could connect them using the ethernet port with a cable and press 'T' on the macbook when it boots up, so I can copy it from my netbook to there. Is there another way to do this?
