Focused workflow with Netbook Remix
If Ubuntu Linux had not won me over yet then it certainly has now. Ubuntu Netbook Remix is a fantastic set of tools for running Linux on small screens and boosting productivity in a limited workspace.
The Remix instantly captured my attention because of its focus on small screens. I have a 13″ MacBook laptop. Its 1280 x 800 screen can feel cramped sometimes, especially compared to my dual-scren iMac setup at work.
Given that my entire Ubuntu experiment is about productivity I had to give it a go.
Thanks to an ingenious app called Maximus every window in the Ubuntu Remix is maximized. At first I thought this might get annoying, but actually it serves to focus my attention quite well. Almost everything I use my laptop for involves text editing.
