If you look at the post of mine suggesting that people simply get an idea of the text size by looking at a 17" MBP , "andintroducing Chris", you will see that it clearly indicates in its 'header bar" that I was replying to Chris Harbig, not you. (These things can get a bit confusing with some of the different "threading" processes that you can choose on these boards, I know, especially when some people use their names and others don't.)
...you seem to want to assure people that "If you ordered the 15" MacBook pro the 1680x resolution is the only way to go."
I've never said anything of the kind,
andintroducing. Building "straw men" is a cheap debating trick at the best of times.
If you are really concerned about people's experiences surely the best solution is just to get people to cast their eyes over a relatively common 17" model so that they can see for themselves what the font size looks like? I find it hard to see why you are so obviously troubled by this suggestion.
Heck, given that the font size on the 17" is actually even a little smaller than on the 15 high res I would have thought that doing so would actually "favour" your own personal, very frequently expressed, and obviously fervently held, opinion about the matter!
