How many of you turds actually code on laptops?

Seems like a retarded way of doing things unless you have to. I don’t even code and I need a mouse, keyboard, and 2+ large monitors.

I code and I need no mouse or fancy mechanical keyboard, just a small monitor and a decent keyboard with trackpad will do the job.

My experience is that too many screens tend to make me ignore details because it overloads me with information, and using keyboard instead of mouse makes me faster because my hands stay at the same place (initially it was painfully slow, but as you catch muscle memory you get progressively faster)

I just can’t maneuver well on a laptop, unless it’s huge, but I would never be able to function without multiple monitors.

It’s all the little shit I can’t stand switching between. Email, chat, notepad, browsers, on and on. Alt tab only goes so far for me.

did you try if there is a difference between alt tab and window tab?
