Late June 2009 I bought a 13" MacBook Pro (2.26 GHz, 4 GB RAM). I suppose that after just three months, the blinding "first joys" over getting a laptop have worn off. By now, I deem my thoughts about this device to be realistic and of an appropriate level. The past few weeks I attained mastery over the Mac OS through personal discovery, accompanied by a very insightful book; I bought additional software and hacked the Dock to suit my preferences.

Yea, 13" is pretty much ideal for me too. I've always found 15" to be too big for traveling, and in reasent years I've been using external monitors when not on the road anyway.
The only thing that bugs me about these Macs, though, is that 14" would easily fit in the same form factor. Alternatively, the unit could be even smaller without sacrificing screen nor keyboard size.
Also, it would be nice if higher DPI rates were possible. In my drawer I have an old 8.9" Lifebook P1120, which has a 1024x600 resolution. Compare this to normal laptops and you see that the Lifbook has a really dense screen, with about 20 DPI more than the 13.3" MacBook.
