don't do any upgrades you can avoid with Apple. If you want more RAM or bigger HDD, do it yourself.... will save a lot of money. Not too many other options you should need.

If you want portable, the 13'' is a nice size, 15" starts to get a little big to be taking around and fitting on a desk in classes (at least for me it was)

Just thought I'd throw that out there as I too had concerns about 13" being too small, but its really a nice size actually.

I always chuckle a little when people have their big ass 17" older-gen MBPs that barely fit on a desk
