The 17" is just too large for most who travel heavily. That makes the 15" a good compromise. I will buy a 17" to replace my TiBook, but most of my travel is outside the USA and the security is a lot easier. (I live, at the moment, in Tokyo) That said, the very portable 12" and a big display back at the home base would be sweet... But more than many want to spend. -Joel P.S.
