MacBook Pro - 17" vs. 15"

[M A V I C]

[quote C(-)ris]Does anyone make a USB 2 exress card?
I found this one: http://www.siig.com/product.asp?pid=1097&catid=128 It probably goes for around $60 or so.

[quote mattkime]i'd go for the 17". the world should make room for my powerbook!
hehe, yeah. I know one guy who flies a lot with a 17" PB. I hear it only fits in first class... and I haven't been sticking with one airline enough to get my miles up to where I get the free first class upgrades.

[quote GGD]Perhaps the FW-800 port on the 15" MacBook Pro could be the extra port that you've been looking for.

2 USB
1 FW-400
1 FW-800
You got me thinking... last time I searched there weren't any FW800 enclosures that would work. I'm searching now but can't find any 5.25" FW800 enclosures... do you know of any?

I think right now I'm leaning towards the 15" with an upgraded HD and a expresscard slot USB card.
