I bought the mba for portability, not as a desktop replacement. MBP has the 8gb upgrade and more options to future proof it.. That is awesome, but what's the point if I need to take it with me and it weighs like a brick. I paid the premium for mba, because they juiced the thing as much as possible in that form factor.
Like another poster said your comparing apples to oranges... An mba and mbp while similar in many ways, are for two different types of people. I see a mbp more as a primary machine, where as a mba is a supplemental machine. You have your mba because you cant lug around your desktop/laptop 5lb or need more options than your ipad/ tablet device.
