Hello all

is a 15" macbook easy to carry around i found the 13" inch easy for mobility, but seeing I'am getting new machine I see the specs to low for my tasting how do you guys find carrying around a 15" macbook.
 
In a backpack it is quite okay, even a 17" MBP (I have one, the 15" got stolen before that), but a shoulder bag can become uncomfortable after a long amount of carrying (an hour or more).

Casual user... 15 inch is fine. I've heard 17 inches can be a bother (not that I would care if I had the machine..) but it's really easy to work with a 15. And I used a shoulder bag for 8 weeks with a load of 10lbs. I am still a bit lopsided....
