Still on the fence...

Have seen both the 15.4 and the 13.3 in person. It took me a minute to realize that I was using the 13.3 at first. That right there told me I could go down to a smaller screen, without a problem.

But I'm still hung up on something. Maybe it's the C2D versus the i5. Or a shared graphics card vs. dedicated. It's not the money. A little voice inside is saying go 13.3 and grab an SSD (256GB) and be done. I've seen the youtube videos where a C2D and SSD just screams. But I hear another voice saying i5 + SSD which would be fuggin' amazing. But, DO I NEED IT?????

I think I'm going nuts.

SCrib I do more graphic intensive work than you do...and i bought the 13 specifically to process my photography when Im traveling. I have no issues.

Go 13 with SSD and youll be happier than a pig in shit.

Only reason to go 15 is if you HAVE to have a matte screen.
