On what size displays do you typically read technical material?

Survey period: 19 Nov 2012 to 26 Nov 2012

When reading technical content, and not merely wasting time in the Lounge, are you on your smartphone, 10" tablet or do you stick to that 55" Plasma and HDMI cable setup you've got going?

It matters to me Big Grin | :-D

(The motivation is I'm wondering what sorts of devices people interact with when doing real work as opposed to reading the news or facebooking. It's important to know so I can prioritise UI design on different platforms. I was going to ask it as part of a private feedback survey but thought: maybe someone else is interested too)
