Answer
If that is all you are doing and it is not needed for gaming or DJing or greating films then the Macbook Air would be great! Also another option would be an iPad as they are not too expensive, they can be used anywhere if you get a 3G data plan andthey would do everything you listed. Keep in mind that the current Macbook Air does not have an Ethernet port (you need a USB adapter or use Wi-Fi) nor does it have an optical drive for cd's and dvd's (you could buy an external USB SuperDrive for 79$)
