NeilIn that case maybe you might want to consider a 16 or 17" notebook, they're probably getting on the verge of being too big to sit on your lap comfortably but on a table they'd probably be fine.
I have a 17" laptop, and most of the time it lives under my desk, driving my 19" screen, controlled by USB mouse+keyboard.
Good standalone screens are much better than laptop screens, though my laptop screen is passable, and I have used it extensively on its own.
