I vote for the 14.4. Well, I'm getting a new laptop, and I think that's what I'm getting, largely because I have to put my computer in my backpack and shlep it all over the northeast on a fairly regular basis, and so I'm trying to keep the size and weight down.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Now tagless for your comfort.
I got a laptop to replace our desktop so it doesn't travel much. So I got the 17 inch. It's pretty cool. DH has a 14 inch one for work which travels a lot easier.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Hmm... its a 14.1 or a 15.4. The weights are 5.5 or 6.18. Maybe its not just weight but also the cumbersome (or lack of) carrying.

I have too much work.
Have found like 5 pretty big errors othe people have made. checking all the work of 4 people in addition to do my own work (which is more than I can do in a day) and checking it, that is getting so old I cannot even tell you!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
What are you using it for? Multiple apps open at once? Watching movies? Will the bigger screen really make a difference?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Weird. The 14.1" comes in two different resolutions: 1280x800 or 1440x900. The 15.4" comes in 1280x800 or 1680x1050.
I'd go for the smaller laptop with the higher resolution.

Hmm... not really. Its more for the sake of "oooh, bigger" than functionality I guess.
It's replacing my desk top. I want to be able to take it places but won't do so on a regular basis. (Hell, I don't even like carrying a purse)

If it's a desktop replacement, I'd say go as big as your budget can afford.
I didn't know P Diddy had dropped the P. I feel so behind.
I'd love to have some resources for my projects. That'd ROCK.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Get the smaller one, and later on you can add an external monitor for your desk if you think you need it.

I'm having enough problem with the UCC, thank you.
