Yes, good catch, I had not thought of age as a variable. I go back to when 1024 by 768 was large, and I do use applications full screen and have one or two per workspace and switch between them with Shift-Tab/Alt-Tab. I'm no hacker though.

Mary Cook's "When I’m at work, I sometimes plug the Air into a 24” Dell monitor and use an external Apple Wireless Keyboard and Magic Mouse. However, often, I find it much easier to get into the zone when I’m just using the laptop unadorned. It’s something about hunching over the small screen, I think." I remember reading somewhere else that someone found the position and feel of typing into a laptop was reminiscent of using a portable typewriter.
