Sorry for the delay in answering. I am playing the email catchup game at the
moment. Not sure how tough the keyboard is on the MBA, as I have only had my
air for a couple of months. It feels well built though and feels like it
would take a bit of pounding. In your case, Apple care may be a good option
though.

I've seen an air but I type very very very hard to the point where I've been
through at least 3 usb keyboard maybe 4 in 5 years. Will the air take my
mettle hands?

Understood. I was just trying to make sure to point out all the possible
differences between the Macbook air and the Pro. May I suggest, if you
have an Apple store near you, that you just go and spend some time with
your hands on both the air and the pro. This should help a bit with your
decision.

I don't use sd cards, and I only use wifi.

Hi,
You can get an adapter that plugs into the air for ethernet connectivity.
Just pointing that out.
Firewire...I have never used it. I haven't even seen it in use.
What is it mainly used for?

I could be wrong, but I believe you can get the air with a 256 gb ssd
and the 13 inch air does have the sd card reader just like the pro.
However, the pro does add the benefit of the super drive as well as lan
and firewire ports which the air does not come with. Hope this helps a
bit.

So I'm trying to decide between a Macbook Pro, or a Macbook AIr. I
would get a educational discount (I'm in college.) I looked at the
specs, and they both look good. Though, the MAcbook Air is only flash,
and it's biggest is 128 gig I think. While the Macbook pro has a 500
gig HD (I wouldn't need that, just 320 gigs.) And, the Macbook Pro
solid state, and it has a superdrive, while the Macbook AIr doesn't. I
don't really care about the weight and how thin the Macbook Air is. SO,
I guess my question would be, what do you guys recommend? It's a toss
up for me. LOL.
