I have a 13” Retina Macbook that i use for dev work but it can be a bit constricting sometimes. If i’m at a desk i have a second screen which i use as the primary display so it’s not so bad. I recently got a Mountie for my iPad (https://tenonedesign.com/mountie.php <https://tenonedesign.com/mountie.php>) and combined with http://www.duetdisplay.com/ <http://www.duetdisplay.com/> makes the 13” a bit more practical if you don’t have a second display to use.
