I'm typing this on a 13" Retina MacBook Pro.
Thunderbolt Display+ 37 others
I hook it up to a 27" Thunderbolt display at the office to get code and a browser side by side.
Pair this with an Apple extended keyboard and a Magic Trackpad on the desk and I'm set.
My home computer is a 1.5 year-old 13" MacBook Air, it's where I sync my iPhone and put my photos.
My iPhone 4S is in my pocket so much that my jeans always have a rectangular mark from the corners.
I also use an original iPad in the kitchen sometimes for recipes and such.

I'm using this stuff to develop software that should be able to run on anything from your laptop to a huge compute cluster or a public cloud like EC2.
