If I'm at home, the laptop will be connected to an external screen -
so I don't care about screen size.  If I'm travelling ... anything
over 14" is murder on my back when I'm carrying it, so I'll just deal
with the small screen size.  I like a big screen, but for a laptop,
size (or more correctly, "weight") is the constraining factor.
