The machine on which I get all my work done is a 2011 MacBook Pro.
Attached to it is a Wacom Cintiq 13HD.
I do research, planning, notes, and occasional sketching on my iPad Air.
Notes
Design
I've been sketching lately in Autodesk Sketchbook Pro because of how quickly it launches and how smooth drawing in it feels, but it too has a terrible UI.
Media
I make paintings, illustrations, and a video game called EarthNight.
Other
Breaktime keeps me from getting headaches and back pain by reminding me to get up and blink.
Teleport makes both my Macs feel like one continuous system.
xGestures makes a keyboard unnecessary while I'm working on the Cintiq.
