    I just ordered it with the 900p resolution/screen but I believe there's still time to change it. It would suck to delay the laptop but I don't want to regret not having the extra resolution later if it's really really better.

    Again it depends on what exactly you're going to do with it.

    Like movies? 1080p would be nice.

    Like games? 900p or lower would be best.

    900p and up would be best if you are working with documents.

    Frankly, I'm using 900p and any higher would probably be very detrimental to my eyesight. I would not be able to take full advantage of 1080p. But this is your laptop. Go with what you like.

    Well I like bigger fonts..

    Will there be a big difference between my current 1280x800 resolution screen and the 900p? (p as if it could have been interlaced lol)

    If you feel you need the 1080p, go and get it. The price difference is not much.

    You should check for screen size comparisons.
