is the 15" powerbook worth the 200$ difference between it and 12"?

it just seems to have a lot more for the money. i dont think i need the super drive 1.5 as it just comes with WAY more than i need. now if i could go
15" w/o super drive
9700 w/ 128mb
256mb ram
60gb hd

i would love that, but it seems that the only way to get the 128 mb vid card is to get 512 mb ram, 80gb hd, and a lot more than i need.

if u didn't know.... u pay a premium for SMALLER screens and smaller laptops.... so 200 seems very little because similarly speced laptops, the 12 inch will be smaller....

if you do some research you'll see that the display on the 12" powerbooks are different from the 15 and the 17" models..i'm talking about the actually LCD..resolution is also smaller<obvious>.
