Everything that people post on here will be subjective. Best thing you can do is go to an apple store and see these computers and make your own observations/decisions.

I think you mean the high res screen, but you don't have to get that, you can buy standard res.

Pros: Smaller than the 17"
Cons: Larger than the 13"

I've got a 15" i7 w/Hi res screen. No complaints. I also use it with an external monitor. My only regret is that I could really use the Express card slot, but that's available only on the 17". Given that, I prefer the 15" to the 17" for everything else.

I have the 15" i7 too with the high res screen and no complaints here about straining. I use mine for 8hrs in my working day and then play world of warcraft almost all of the night when I get home (if the mrs doesn't moan too much)

I tend to keep the contrast on or under the middle

Hey i also have the 15" high res i7 =D haha seems like a popular model, for good reason though.

Pros-
fast
lightweight
fantastic screen size for everything
(everyother feature a mac offers)

Cons-
bigger then a 13"

i have had this computer almost 3 months and i absolutely love it, i just added a seagate momentous XT HDD/SSD for $110 and it was the missing link between fast and WOW fast. I truly is the ideal machine.
