I am a network Engineer at work, but when I come home I want a powerful computer that do anything creative, entertainment, or productivity wise. This computer also has to be as ultra portable as possible and reliable as possible. I use to have a macbook air, and it was not powerful enough for my needs. It's a wonderful product though.
To answer your question, some people actually use all the raw horse power the macbook pro provides and need something portable.

Funny, the whole first paragraph applies to rMBP.I had an MBA and returned it for a MBP 2012 BC storage is way too much money on a MBA then I can get on a MBP, also I can have a HDD where the Superdrive is, so having two drives is a bonus. I did love the portability of the AIR. but the fact that I could not upgrade the ram and SSD without buying a whole other unit was frustrating, even though OWC has aftermarket SSD's, just cost too much.
I try to use the minimal apps needed, however since I do a lot of video editing and creation, I have loaded:
vlc
coconut battery
Firefox - some web sites just do not work perfectly on Safari and I do not like chrome
MS Office 2011 - iWorks does not play with Office files well and I use Office for work, so it was an easy fit for me
Stuffit Deluxe for compressed files
Carbon Copy Cloner - many uses
Makes sense.Because some folks want a 15" screen perhaps?
