This article tries to make the claim that having more screen real estate makes you less productive. Anyone else buy this?

I buy that the software they talk about to help you manage the large screen can increase productivity. I'm not sure about the large screen itself resulting in a decrease.

I know of at least one person on this board who would probably call it pigshit.

As I coder I find that multiple displays are nice, coding on one and seeing the source on the other, I feel like I can never have enough real estate.

But I understand that there can be issues with very high resolution displays and arranging their layouts. It pisses me off to no end when I hit a website that decides to maximize the browser window when I'm running on a 30" display.
