Since you have a DVI connector, you can attach large LCD screens like the 1920x1200 23" Cinema display. Or you can wait for a G5 Powerbook with a 64bit Lisp - where the ARRAY-TOTAL-SIZE-LIMIT could be quite a bit larger. ;-) I have "only" a 15" G4 Powerbook and a 22" Cinema display, but it works nicely with LispWorks for Macintosh. Still, rumors have it that the Powerbook line will be updated soon. The next MacWorld conference is only a few days away. Actually I'm ***quite*** impressed with LispWorks for Macintosh. Xanalys did a very good job porting LispWorks. It is really fun to use.
