I lasted almost two months on my 11" MacBook Air before hooking it up to a 27" Thunderbolt Display in a fit of desperation. As my traveling machine it's fantastic, but I prefer my iMac as a full time dev machine.
(I mostly do Cocoa dev in Xcode these days.)
- drivebyacct2 14y agoI guess I assume that's a given. I'm getting one of those cheap 27" super high res displays off ebay to compliment my MBA. It handles everything I do, but I also have a server that I run my heavy code on because it's where my data is. At the same time, I pretty much constantly have a VM running on here and I get good enough battery life. I also have a monitor though of course. I would go crazy alt+tabbing. Even now the width of my display can't handle my open tabs in Sublime. edit: though... now that I sit here and realize what I'm saying, 80% of the time I code, I do it on the MBA. The DPI is such that I prefer the font when coding. This will change when I get my new display though. The laptop will sit on a dock and be my doc-dock or my stream a movie while I work-dock.
