Has there been a professional comparison of the two screens (gamut, contrast, etc), or have any of you done the comparison and formed an opinion? Thanks.
 
Panel-wise they are pretty similar. The 17 offers higher DPI (133 vs 128 on the 15 inches).

My amateur comparison would say they are pretty close. Both look nice, but are inherently terrible as they are both TN panels, so don't expect perfect quality at all viewing angles.
