“Works on my machine” in general is a huge problem in dev culture.

I understand the desire to work on machines with lots of power and memory with a nice high res display and fiber connection. It makes the experience a great deal nicer. Even so, we should be keeping old and/or thoroughly mediocre devices around and testing on them periodically so we don’t succumb to illusions of good performance.
