Macbook air 13" vs MacBook pro 13"

Hi guys, i am a PC user switching over to Macbooks now.. Im in a hugee dilemma! i went to the store today and saw the 13 inch macboko pro and the macbook air....

macbook air has duo core i7 turbo boosted to 3.2ghz with 8gig memory and 256 SSD($1679.00) and the macbook pro had i7 turbo boosted to 3.6 ghz with 8 gig memory and 500GB regular hard drive(1429.00)....

i love how the air is compact and i can carry it with me anywhere but then i also like how the pro is a bit cheaper... i do prefer the SSD hard drive though over the regular one but i wanted to know does the macbook air run everything smoothly? like maybe autocad and photoshop and stuff. I will be downloading lots of music, movies and surfing the web and using it as my main computer to work on documents as well!

Please help me decidee!!!

    Depends on your needs. If you have no an iPad cause you prefer to have all the feature of a laptop, Macbook air is perfect for you. Ultra portable is better in my bag,SSD memory(i've tested it on a friend of mine 11inch air) is like "Flash" the superhero;it turns on in a second and the web browser is so fast. I will buy a new macbook air 13inch with 256GB, maybe with 8Gb of ram cause it's not upgradable later...I'm just waiting for the new Mountain Lion realese avaible n few days. Looking forward it!
