13 15 or 17 when traveling alot

[Mikael Adle]

Im traveling alot by train and want to take a macbook with me to work while traveling.
Anyone here who have insight of the different models along with either traveling by train or plane... what do you prefer? macbook pro 13, 15 or 17".

Not sure how much time you spend on airplanes, but even my 13" is cramped, especially if the person in front of me reclines. I guess it also depends what class you fly. But on a train, it's totally comfortable. It's really a tough call, because using Logic on a 13" screen is definitely less than ideal, but the weight/footprint is great.

And what do you think about it "on average" regarding the size compared to either 13" or 17"?

Thanks for sharing.

Only the 17 has an express34 slot these days. This may be an issue for you. It is for me when upgrade time comes.

I have now tried and tested and will get the 13" macbook pro.

All the best.
