Another way is with Time Machine. If you have a backup of your existing computer on an external drive then it can restore from there. It should also works if you have a hacked Airport Extreme / Time Machine backup, or a Time Capsule.
The last time I transfered with target disk mode, it took several hours. With only an 80 gig drive in the Air, it probably won't take that long.

That should probably work, but the AppleStore collects tax. I would order from someplace like Amazon.com which does not collect the tax.
