- 15" Macbook Pro (2009)
Hey all, I'm getting a Macbook Pro because I'm going to be learning to develop iPhone/iTouch apps and I need OSX. I have a great Windows 7 RC custom machine that I've been using now so I'm getting something that can be made portable; hence the MBP. I can hook it up to my 22" widescreen LCD here when I'm at home but I will need enough space when I'm on the road to program in and work in Photoshop.
I've checked out both MBPs (13" and 15") at the Apple Store and they are wonderful machines but I am seriously stuck on trying to choose between 13" and 15". I love the footprint of the 13" but I love the 15" display. I don't travel too much, but I take trips every now and then. Who here travels with the 15"? Does it get in the way at all or do you find yourself not having enough space at places where you take it out? How is it in your lap?
Has anyone gone 13->15 or 15->13? Reasons why? Any program developers out there?
