Graphics is a major plus on the 17in. Custom batteries? They all had custom batteries.  You can't take the battery from 12in to put into the 15in or the 17in.

Plus RAM Expansion on the 17in is two slots (like the 15in), not one on the 12in. And the PCMCIA on the side adds more functionality - faster USB Ports, CF or SD PCMCIA adapters, RAM Cards, so on. If the 12in had that I would be one happy puppy. an the CPU is faster on the 17in - the fastest 12in I believe is 1.5GHz while the 15/17in has 1.6GHz (correct me if I'm wrong).
