if you have an external monitor, then perhaps the 15" would be enough.

~however~, if you are intent on doing recording/mixing and design 
work with *only* the LCD, then i encourage you to think about the 17".

i went from the Bronze PB to the rev. A Ti500 and the extra screen 
real estate was a blessing.

if i was buying now, i'd go with the 17" lunch tray.

my 2 cents.
