And I don't have a functional laptop but I think I like ones around 15 inch if it's going to be used for traveling and school.

15.4 WXGA acer and i love it. Its perfect for everything. but its a little bit hard to work with video editing program. the self program takes 3/4 of the screen(even when i hide the taskbar)

Your almost right

That's the graphics card's job, and it depends on the resolution, not the screen size. (Of course bigger screens will have higher native screen resolution).
