I just took stock of my screen where I'm developing with Xcode 3.2.6: I have 38 windows up (21 of which are source code files, 8 are multiples of the same file, but centered on different spots in the code) and am working on 3 projects at once (an OSX app, an iOS app, and a library). Why? Because they all need to be developed in tandem.

I know what you mean. Even opening a document window and writing codes at the same time while thinking about what methods to choose and thinking about what widgets are to connected to what IBOutlet variables visually are not practically impossible with Xcode 4, although you can open a separate window for them. (Then you have all the unnecessary portion of windows like toolbars etc and they eat the screen real-estate. Yeah. I know that you can hide those. But it is not as convenient as that of Xcode 3. )


I interpret Xcode 4 as a message from Apple :

"You are developer. Don't buy 13" notebooks. Also, try our cool LED screens. You can hook up the nice screens".

In your case, you need at least 3 screens. Good thing is whenever you don't really need to see all those, you can be OK with "spaces" from time to time.

Although Xcode 4 has nice new features, GUI-wise I like Xcode 3 a lot more.
Xcode 4 is worse than Visual Studio in terms of useability.
