$800 gets you a pretty nice laptop. I don't see the advantage of this approach at all.
It's interesting to see that other people are noticing how poor the google web experience has become on iOS. It seems especially deliberate when I note that android & chrome use webkit. I've even swapped the default search engine to bing because it provides a better layout, especially so for image searching which in my view is broken on iOS. This from the company that just released tools to aid the transition to mobi…
Anyone who thinks Google Docs is better on Android due to anti-Apple conspiracy clearly has never used Google Docs on Android. Also, outside of Google Docs, Google has first rate support for iOS on the web. Gmail, Voice, Reader, everything runs brilliantly on iOS. In fact, usually better than Android, as they clearly see web as their primary in to iOS compared to Android (example: Voice is the snazzy HTML5 newness on…

You Mac people are so entitled. Tell me this, how come I can't dual boot OS X on my Windows PC?
You are so .
Tell me this, ?
I could sit here and list all sorts of analogous scenarios to the one you've questioned above, but I'd be wasting my time because you're not interested in that, if you were you could search for that information.
Now I ask you a question: Do you think your thoughts make a meaningful contribution to these forums? Perhaps you should consider somewhere with a one-sided bias if you're not comfortable hearing contrasting ideas and opinions from different minds. Perhaps you could gain maturity by being able to cope with the view points of others (which you're not going to change with such transparent arguments.)
And if you still don't get it: You aren't going to change my view point, the view point of others or any of these companies by acting like a troll, you're wasting your time and undermining the credibility of other comments you make on this forum.

A tiling window manager can definitely be a huge productivity booster. Perhaps even more than adding an extra display, which is often said to be the cheapest way to improve productivity. A tiling WM costs nothing. I've even started working comfortably using just one display now that I've changed to using a tiling WM. With a floating wm, I needed at least two large displays to work comfortably. Lots of that screen are…
""Perhaps even more than adding an extra display, which is often said to be the cheapest way to improve productivity."" And which can also be a way to decrease productivity, with distractions etc. I am more productive on a smaller screen laptop than I am on a 2 screen set or even one larger (21, 27") screen. Mainly because it helps to focus on the task at hand. We also didn't have 2 large monitors to each workstation…
One fateful day, VMWare and OS/X conspired to trash my shared filesystem, losing several days of uncommitted code in the process. Several days of uncommitted code? We need to have a heart to heart talk about your process.
One day his VMWare went wack
So he picked up his code, went to Linode
Which now handles all of his stack
As an example, I developed MultiplayerChess.com is on my Linode server. I don't have an IPhone or IPad yet but I see that it's great to access a full utilized development environment from anywhere...
Let's turn this topic to a usesthis.com for CLI lovers.
CLI apps that I use are tmux (In addition to the previous comments not recommending Screen, I highly recommend Tmux), Emacs, VIM (I use Emacs as an IRC and Twitter client, an IDE and a self-organizer, VIM as a file editor), newsbeuter for RSS and links for browsing. My choice of distribution is Arch Linux.
if you wonder about my Emacs configuration, it's in my Github; github.com/azer/emacsfiles

I'm always doing git push origin develop for this reason, but some environments probably don't allow you to do this easily? I work alone. (EDIT: be nice to people)
We typically work in personal feature branches before merging into develop; if you use a similar workflow there shouldn't be much issue at all from pushing constantly.
