I like the bigger laptops, though. They are just more versatile. You can use them for TV watching, etc. With the small ones, you really can't. They are also better for websites/editing. Yes, mine is heavy, but it is also like 100 years old. I am sure they are lighter now.
I like the bigger laptops for home use, too. I don't have cable, I just download the shows I want to watch, or watch them on streaming video! It saves a heck of a lot of money on cable TV bills. I almost wish I had a larger laptop for home use, but since I do travel with mine, I had to find the compromise. Website and image editing on this little guy is kind of a bitch, though. I've started doing some of my web stuff at work...I've got dual 20" flatscreen monitors. ALL THAT LOVELY SPACE. *drools*

(the other option would be to get a small laptop and hook a really nice big flatscreen monitor to it at home. That way you've got the real estate of a large screen, but the portability of a small laptop when you want it!)
