I agree, wide-screen is great. I've noticed that many developers often code in a single editor window (using tabs or buffers, etc). Is that common?
I have been coding for years with multiple editor windows open in various forms - browsers in Smalltalk, multiple windows in Xcode, Eclipse, etc. If you use multiple windows, you can always fit 2 (or even more) windows side by side on a widescreen. I definitely prefer a wider than a taller screen.
