Then I think the technical word for the situation you're in is screwed. Surely you don't need one of the Uber MBP's? I'm only planning to get the basic one when I go to University for example. The basic one here is only £1300 (I say only...).

I need the 17inch for the best of reasons. Actually maybe a 15inch but thats only 300euros in the difference so 17inch and plus it would cool better.

I think the 17" is a waste of money really, €300 for 2 extra inches (diagonally) of screen space isn't really worth it, my email reckons I can get more inches for less for example.

I don't know. I'm a heavy gamer so lasting a year without ultras would be something.
