Hey guys.
Well, most of us are attending university next year, and hopefully I will be too.
So I am in need of a new laptop. I have approximately an $800 budget for the laptop, and need it prior to December 3rd.
My requirements:
Windows
Reasonably attractive
Reasonably light/portable
Durable
13-15" screen
i5 with about 2.4-5gHz
4GB RAM +
Decent graphics card
3+ USB ports
Optical drive
~500GB HDD
I was considering buying a HP Pavillion M6 today:

But I am unsure about the size of the laptop. Do you feel 15" is too large to be portable around a university? And is this laptop okay? I particularly like the aesthetics, and it has all the features I like, but I just don't know. My only faults with it were that the keyboard flexed in slightly, the arrow keys were configured strangely and the large size of the laptop.
I'd preferably rather buy it in a store.
Thanks for your help.
Peace
