You're right, each to their own, I guess my point was just that we're usually only working on one track/clip or group at a time and a bit of zoom toggle or Opt/F makes things big enough for me on a small screen.

cheers

I hear you Steve, and agree that zooming helps but to skiltrip's point, even with the zoom toggled on I find the 13" screen cramped. That said, if I had to work with only the 13" screen I'm sure I'd adapt, however; it's really nice to have the option of keeping a couple of windows open at the same time. Oh-oh, does this mean I have to stop complaining about not having enough gear in my studio???
