I've got a Sony VAIO Z, 13.1" @ 1920x1080. It takes a bit getting used to, but it's great to have a high-res screen for coding and also not have to lug around a huge, heavy machine.

Re: Poll: What is the size of your laptop/netbook?
#12I'm happy enough with my productivity on 13 inch, I probably spend most of the time remote using it as is with occasionally plugging in a external monitor. One advantage for me is it forces me to think about my apps usability on a smaller screen as opposed to 1080p at home where its very easy to fit everything in.

#13Still tugging along on my first generation Asus EEE PC. It's 7.1". Tiny and slow compared to what's out there now, but it does the job I need it to do.

#1413" MacBook, but have been happy in the past with a 12" G4 PowerBook.
Next portable will likely be the 11' MacBook Air, as I'm really impressed with all the reviews evoking the spirit of the 12" PowerBook... but fast.

#15I recently went from a 14.1" to a 15.4"
The 14 was much more comfortable to use on a plane (I flew much more often back when I bought it), but I rarely fly any more.
What I have done a lot of lately is take "working vacations" where my laptop becomes my only computer for a couple of weeks while my son and I decamp to my folks' farm on his breaks from school. I love that my job makes that possible, but doing it with the 14" laptop got old after awhile.
My son uses a 10" netbook -- more because it's a good fit for his 8yo hands than for portability. He's still a bit small to type well on a full-sized keyboard.
(I voted both of my laptops, not his)

#16Not entirely clear if you are asking for what it is, or what we'd like it to be. I have a asus 1000he, and I think the ideal is 11-12" (i.e. just a hair larger). I'm considering upgrading to a Thinkpad x220 later this year, but I'm hoping someone comes out a non-overpriced SSD model with higher res screen (i.e. linux macbook air).

#17Computer A is closer to 9 (8.9) but connected to a 22" 1920x1080 screen. Computer B is 13" crappy 1366x768 dual-headed with a 22" 1920x1080.
Computer C is connected to a 12" IBM 3151, but I only use it for the anachronistic aspects.

#18Over the last few months my answer has turned into "iPad sized", and my two laptops sit on a shelf untouched.

Do you mind telling us what size those all are so we dont have to look them up?

#20I thought hackers are supposed to be Mac people, what's with all the PCs in here?
edit: not sure why I'm being downvoted, just curious
