Which screen size suits you, and why?

Oh wow, 15 is winning. I would have thought 13, LoL.

Anyways, 13 is the perfect size for me because my main computer is an iMac 27, so a MacBook Pro for me is primarily for basic computing when I'm away from home, so I focus on portability. I'm actually using my MacBook Pro 13 like most people would a netbook, so size and weight is a big deal.

I thought about selling my MacBook Pro for an iPad, but I realized that I type a lot on the computer (chatting, writing, etc...), and the virtual keyboard wasn't really up to par for such purposes. Also, I like to use it as a portable DVD player.

But man, I sure would like an iPad. If only I could justify it!

For the MBP I just bought a few weeks ago, I chose the 17". I had the 17" 2006 MBP, before that, and the 15" 2002 TiBook, before that. 17" isn't too large for me, isn't too heavy, is still plenty portable, still fits fine for me in coach seats on airplanes, etc. I don't have any trouble with the size and weight. I enjoy the extra real estate for working on pictures, and for everything else – working on my website, working on books, games, the internet, movies, and so on.
