Hi,
This is my fist post and i will be purchasing my first macbook pro in the next few days.
I am undecided between the high end 15 inch or the 17inch. I have already decided not to get the low end 15 inch because i intend on keeping my laptop for at least 3 years and want it to stay current and want it to have some resale value when i do sell it. I know the high end 15 inch is overkill as i dont do any gaming, but like i said maybe it will keep more value. The reason i am thinking of the 17 inch is that the price difference between the high end 15 inch (with SSD128 and high res screen) and the 17 inch is only NZ$200. I mainly use my laptop at home so the weight is not an issue.
Is there any reason not to get the 17 inch? I currently have an asus 15 inch (dont get me started, 2X failed motherboards)
