I, dbs, admit, here and for all to see, that when coding on my huge 21" Nokia monitor, at the screaming resolution of 1400x1050, I zoom my KVim editor window up to full screen, hiding everything else under a vast expanse of 8pt font.

I run 17" monitors at 1600x1200. A nice high resolution means smoother fonts at decent sizes.

At a long-ago job, I ran Windows 3.1 on a 14" 1280x1024 fixed-frequency monitor (meant for CAD work). Now that was *tiny*.
I generally prefer to make better use of my horizontal space by running two editing windows (Emacs, in my case) side by side, or an edit window and some compile/run/etc. windows.

Unfortunately, this laptop can't handle anything higher resolution - 1400x1050 is the maximum it can push, and that's fine for me ;)
