I owned the last 17" MacBook, and I loved it. I was sad when they discontinued it.
However, time away has made me realize that I never want a laptop that large ever again. It's overkill, inconvenient, and sells poorly.
- drawkbox 10y agoI had (still have) the maxed out 17" MacBook "lapzilla" but loved it for the power and really need a big screen to get real work done (coding/gamedev/data etc). I am now usually surrounded by 3 27" screens, if the laptop is just for demos and meetings probably could be smaller but if I have to work on it for any amount of time it needs to be a big screen. I would still dig a pro 17" thicker and more powerful MacBook.
