| 1168366 | 2011-01-09 20:27:00 | I'm thinking about buying a new notebook, and it seems getting a 16 or 17" screen in 1080p is still prohibitively expensive. Are they worthwhile, or am I better to spend the cash elsewhere? It's usage will be pretty general purpose, but I do watch quite a few movies on my current notebook. |

| 1168367 | 2011-01-09 23:29:00 | IMO even if you watch alot of movies, a 1080p won't make much difference at that size screen. I suppose the extra screen estate would be useful, but you'd be squinting and its probably not worth the large premium unless you need it. |

| 1168370 | 2011-01-10 23:15:00 | I agree with Blam, 1080p wont be very noticeable at all, I usually only find its usefulness at 21"+ | narutophantom (12610) | ||
