A big monitor is usefull, when developing (even for laptops).
Because additionally to the gui of the programm you are developing you need access to the toolbars of your developer-ide, dont you?

Thats why a dual monitor system is a must have, espcially if you are developing custom paint code in your application or with DirectX, it will allow you to step through your code, without interupting your program.

Just because my software should work on a PII 200 Mhz running Win98 does not mean I want to run VC on such a computer. My whole life would be waiting for it to compile...

I follow a simple rule. Never have a faster machine at the office than at home! Why? Cuz getting used to a fast machine paid by someone else makes me want to spend my own money to match it. If you aren't using it you don't miss it.
