Indeed. It's a good thing there were no developers between 1970 and 2000, and all programs spontaneously arranged themselves via xkcd butterflies until monitors arrived that allowed for development.
- rednukleus 13y ago15" 4:3 monitors were standard before year 2000. You have to go back to probably the early 90s before standard monitors had less real estate than a 15" widescreen. Of course resolutions and panel quality have increased since then, which mitigates the problem of working off a laptop monitor. Personally I find im far more productive on a 24" monitor than a 14" laptop screen, but its not impossible.
