I'm currently doing my hobby programming projects on a 10 inch screen (asus t100), and have set up my flow so that i don't need a bigger screen.
I used to have a three monitor setup, but at some point realized that all that real estate was preventing me to focus. Now i only want one window on screen at a time. Alt+tab is my extra screen real estate. My usual screen is 22 inches and that's about the maximum size for putting windows fullscreen.

- Joeri 13y agoI write lengthy spec documents on that 22 inch screen ;) I use a logitech m500 with the inertial scrollwheel, so scrolling through long documents is easy. Also, word's navigation pane makes it easy to jump from point to point. The 22 inch screen is just large enough to see the full page width and the nav pane side by side. When implementing long spec documents, i print them out and mark off the parts i've completed. There would be no added value from having a second screen where i do that digitally for me personally. (I did try it once.)
- mwcampbell 13y agoThis is the first I've heard of another programmer using the T100. Are you using it as a terminal to a more powerful computer, or as the actual computer? If the latter, what does your dev environment consist of, and what platform(s) are you programming for?
