While computer shopping this weekend, we met three young people who had started out with bigger laptops (17" monitors, or even the 15.6" size) and traded down.

One young man is a computer science student who had a big, heavy laptop he kept on his desk and a netbook he carried around with him. I think if he’d realized he was going to be unhappy with the big laptop, he would have gone with a desktop + netbook setup.
