Same here! My early 2011 MBP is curmudgeonly and truly needing a suitable replacement. Nothing like 17" for page layout, design, and watching movies with your sweetie. Remember when 17" was the smallest display that AutoCAD would function on?

do you mean 17" was your smallest preference? (minimum requirements are about pixels, nothing to do with screen size...)

Yes, at the time, it had to do with pixels, but a smaller macbook display didn't support the minimum number of pixels required. Out of all the mac laptops, only the 17" met the minimum requirements; handy for an architect on the move. Now? no idea; not up on the latest.
