Looking into a new laptop for grinding. I have always used 17 inch screens but I cant seem to find one that I like. I am currently looking into Lenovo 15.6 machines and think I found a winner.
Thought on this (The 899 one) with a SSD and video card seems like a great deal

My only concern is the 15.6 inch screen. I have never tried grinding on one before. Right now I usually run about 4-8 tables tops across 2-3 networks. I have access to dual monitors but rarely use them as I dont operate in that room much.
For comparison purposes this is what I have now
