Right now I am typing on a gateway MX6433, its quite good. The screen size is about 15 inches. I can play Call Of Duty: United Offensive with it with only like 35 fps but, hey its portable gaming! Heres the General information
System:
Microsoft Windows XP
Media Center Edition
Version 2002
Service Pack 2Gateway
MX6433
AMD Turion 64 mobile
Technology ML-30
797 MHz, 448 MB of RAMI got this laptop on sale for about 500 US dollars and came with a printer. The warranty was 200 US dollars for 2 years accidental.
I hoped that helped, If not Im sorry.

The weight will be an issue.
If you think you can bear the weight, then the 15.4″ will be the best. But a word of caution, a laptop is usually a PORTABLE. It’s pointless getting a big screen and a heavy one. You might as well get a desktop. Plus, a heavy laptop will be even heavier if you carry it for long.
Having said that, a 15.4″ would be great for games but 13.1″ is suitable for normal work. If you don’t stare at your screen for the whole day, it would be good to have a 13.1″ instead of a 15.4″.

Well that does depend on what you want to do and whether you want to watch your movies on a wider screen or not. Some people find it annoying to watch movies on a small screen while some other people are okay with watching movies on a PlayStation Portable. But since you mentioned that you’re also using it for work (I assume you’re going to be carrying it around to the office and back home and working at other places), you should go for the 13.1″ (I personally would). My laptop is 14″ wide screen and I don’t feel it’s too small for watching movies, and I don’t think 13 inches would make much difference.
