is one always better than two

Like many people I've had a desktop work mac for years and owned a PowerBook in parallel, I do 80% of my work on the PowerBook and read work email on the desktop. Swapping data between machines, even with a usb thumbdrive is such a waste of time. The pain of multiple setups expresses itself in many ways, web history; email archives; and just personal files. I'm changing jobs soon and looking forward to getting a new powerbook, so having one machine for work and home, which will be bliss. I am thinking that this will be a boon for my productivity, but am I missing something? I know a desktop has better ergonomics. but is one always best ? thanks 5 Comments

Very true, a bigger screen, keyboard and mouse does make a difference, but I'm thinking more about the hassle factor of two machines as I see it. » POSTED IN:
