always looking up would be extremely bad for ergonomics that's true.

Buying a small laptop is great, because I think laptops are there for mobility, so small = easier to carry = better. But the resolution height decreases with physical height. Thinkpads achieve 900 pixels in height. But i want to code in there!

What I've noticed is, that it bothers me writing on my laptop keyboard while staring at my external screen. I find it more comfortable having the keyboard right beneath of what Im typing.

I guess I should have mentioned that I have a Bluetooth mouse(the magic mouse, I love the scrolling on this so much that I can live without two separate buttons.) and a ps/2 to USB adapter for my Microsoft keyboard. It's like I am on a desktop but I can take it to go. I would love to have 3 monitors but I might go with a 30" in the future to mitigate that desire.
