You run your IDE over VNC?
I've been wanting to try out remote developing for multiple years now, it would allow me to get an iPad with a perfect battery life or an Macbook Air that would tag along all day without charging. But because I cannot work with vim/emacs and my IDEs (IntelliJ) do not support anything like remote development I am stuck with a huge Macbook Pro including a battery draining IDE that cannot be ran remotely. VNC added too much lag for me to use all day.
