I’ve been borrowing my brother’s monitor for the past couple of days to see how well I could manage a dual monitor setup with my laptop, and just from the first day I was already in love. It is really great to be able to code on my laptop and Alt+Tab to my browser on the monitor right next to it and then just hit Ctrl+R to refresh. And if I’m really feeling froggy, I just set Firefox to auto-refresh every sixty seconds or so, and just keep saving my work as I go. Constantly being able to see what you’re changing without having to look away from your code makes it really easy to stay on task and not get distracted. I definitely recommend a second monitor to any of you programmers who might be reading this. Heck, I recommend it to anyone who might not be so good at multi-tasking.
