In 2016, do we really need 17-inch laptops?

[Windows Central]

At what point is a laptop not a laptop anymore?
I've never been one for big laptops. My current steed, the fabulous Dell Inspiron 15 7559 at 15.6-inches, is actually larger than I'd care to carry around. But it serves a purpose of being able to play games without being too massive. I can't imagine hauling around anything bigger when I leave the house.
But there are still plenty of 17-inches laptops out there, like the ASUS G752 and Lenovo's Ideapad Y900. There are those for gaming and those for more pedestrian computing. But they have one thing in common. They are enormous.

If they still make them it must mean that there must be a market for it. However, I don't think that there is that much of a difference between a 15 to a 17 inches laptop. Most people who buy the 15 inches or more size laptop use them as a desktop replacement.
