I got something that was 12 inches and about an inch thick. Also you don't want to hook up the cd drive or any drive externally. That is rather annoying.

When I was shopping for a Powerbook, my husband wanted me to get the 17" because is was such a large screen...my feeling (as is yours) was that if I was going to get that large of a screen, then there was no point getting a laptop! I got the 15" and have never had any regrets.
Another recommendation is to make sure that the CD/DVD drive burns and plays CD/DVD's...and know what type of media it'll use...the Powerbooks only use -R/RW discs...there are others that use +/- R/RW media...know what you're buying...
