I'm torn between choosing a 15" or 17" laptop. It will be primarily for OE/wxEuphoria/remote CGI app development.

15" is obviously more portable, but not by that much. Either size will fit on the local coffee shop's tables quite easily, and both can be ported down to the beach for some ocean-side app dev.

But is the premium for the 17" worth it (generally about $200 or so, I think)? If I'm only going remote once every week or less, is the 17" going to be tolerable? I like the idea of the 17" just because I'm getting older and the bigger screen might be better for my eyes.

I'm looking for experienced opinions! Let me know what you think.

Thank you!
