Small screen? Again, 17in is rather difficult to come by in a laptop.

The real fallacy is in denigrating the side-by-side workflow. Just having every window be fullscreen would be madness.

I just checked. I have a 17 inch laptop screen (uncommon and has to be sought for these days). To hit 120 characters on two terminals side-by-side requires 9pt font. That's definitely not something everyone can manage.

I think 120 might even be pushing the limits of conscientiousness.
