You don't even want to do your graphics work on a 17" laptop screen. You want a 15" nice external LCD. At least, that's what I concluded. I don't do much graphics work, but I'm a window junkie--I have seven open windows right now, and I'm not even DOING anything. When I'm coding, it can be many more than that, with terminal windows, FTP app, separate browser with documentation, etc. My 23" widescreen LCD is my main screen when my Pro is in "desktop configuration".
The options were a little different a year ago when I bought my MBP, but I went with the middle-range 15", and upgraded its ram on my own. Seemed the best balance of bang and buck.
