I don't think this is a one size fits all situation.

I think it's as much about resolution as size, I use a 15.4" screen but at 1600x1050, tried a 15.4" 1200x800 last week and hated it.

I didnt expect anybody will recommend "more" option ... I think it is good for desktop PC/MAC but not for notebook :)

Well , Im personally thinking about 15.4" , but problem is ... I have big fear after using normal 15" monitor , after this one I bought 17,4 LCD and it is enough , but now Im moving to notebook and 17.4" notebook seems to me too big :D :D

it is bit funny :oops:

It's not just about screen size, but resolution, interface, and personal preference.

Useless poll!

What did you think ?
Watching on 17.4" at 1440x900 is the same as watching 15.4" at 1440x900 ??

It is curious but my personal preference is 13.3" ... but I cant imagine to have Moog Modular V on this screen ... 8)
