I have a choice between a 15.4" widescreen laptop and a 17" laptop.
Which do you think is the better choice?
The 15.4" widescreen specs:
AMD Turion(TM) 64 ML-40 (2.2GHz/1MB L2 Cache)
15.4" WXGA BrightView Widescreen
128MB ATI RADEON(R) XPRESS 200M w/Hypermemory
1.0GB DDR
80GB
CDRW/DVD
54g(TM) 802.11a/b/g WLAN
8 Cell Lithium Ion Battery
all for $1,079
The 17" one is $100 more, with 200mhz less CPU speed and 20GB less hardrive space.
Which would prove to be the better choice?
I have considered Dell and sony but indeed 17 is BIG no normal bag will carry it - if your still into portable?
Can always add a 21inch screen on your desk(s)
Personally, I find the 17" too big for my taste. You should go to a store and test drive the screen sizes.
Are you using it mostly in the same place or mostly for portability?
a couple of places.Quote:

I mainly need it for portability reasons. I'm gonna go with the 15.4" widescreen more than likely.
i would love the sony vaio but i need to move
reality hurts
I had a 17" notebook for a while. I used it to take notes in class, you name it. I considered it plenty portable, but that's me. everyone is different. I felt that having dual harddrives and a 17" screen made it worth carrying a 12lbs laptop with four hours of battery life out of two batterys.
Why that one?Quote:
