These posts remind me of the articles by designers trying to use MS Paint instead of Photoshop to create amazing pictures. http://mytechquest.com/windows/amazing-ms-paint-pictures/ http://mytechquest.com/windows/amazing-ms-paint-pictures/ Yes, you can do it, but you're forcing yourself and it is not the best tool for the job. One giveaway is the emphasis on the time spent (a whole six weeks!) as if it's a test of endurance and willpower(hey, I stopped smoking for 6 weeks!) I have to disagree on the cost too, laptops and desktops are really cheap, powerful and last a long time now. Not to mention the fact that using VNC and SSH makes you dependent on another machine anyway.

One giveaway is the emphasis on the time spent (a whole six week!) People had been asking for updates after my original post (http://bergie.iki.fi/blog/working-on-android/ http://bergie.iki.fi/blog/working-on-android/) explaining the setup. By now it is over two months and I'm still not complaining... If you're a developer used to IDEs and big screens, this might sound like trying to work with one hand tied behind your back. I never found need for such tools, and so it works fine for me. Vim and tmux are just beautiful on such a screen!
