Do you still love your late 2011 17" MBP - thinking about buying one

Would love to hear how this model is working for those who really need the dedicated graphics card and what kind of activity it takes for it to switch to that card. I'm having a hard time deciding between that and the newest MBP 15" with antiglare screen and USB 3.0. Need to use the new filters in CS6 Photoshop.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
