I've had all sizes of laptops, but am about to buy my second 17.3". Personally I would not go back to a smaller screen. As far as transporting it, the extra size of the 17" doesn't bother me at all. I carry it in a Swiss Gear backpack, along with all necessary plugs, cables, and so on, plus room for papers, files, and other things I might need.
My new laptop is going to have an SSD (solid state drive) plus a conventional hard drive. Computers with SSD's are sooooo much faster, often boot up in less than 10 seconds I am told, and are also quicker in general usage.
Definitely go with the ssd drive. At my age, every second saved matters. Who knows how many I have left? ;)
