<p>Just wondering because I'm thinking about getting one...</p>
<p>MacBook pro 17 inch is perfect by the way</p>
<p>Mac’s aren’t my thing lol.</p>
<p>I’ve got a fat laptop. It’s GREAT for movies but is a little clunky since it barely fits in my backpack. Still, it really hasn’t been an issue; if I need to get it somewhere, transportation is never a big hassle.</p>
<p>I’m thinking of picking up a dell xps 17, and was just wondering. I figure it’ll stay in my dorm 80% of the time so it shouldn’t be too big of a problem. (even if I am an ECE major)</p>
<p>Be sure to actually go to a store and feel the physical weight of one of those laptops. Ask if you can feel how heavy the power brick is (and what sort of battery life you’ll get without it).</p>
<p>I talked my girlfriend into going for a 15" instead of a 17" when she bought her laptop and she couldn’t be happier.</p>
