I would vote for a development environment that is upside down, too.
Since IDL is by far the most important application running on any
computer in the world, it should be ok then to turn the monitor upside
down. I am sure other software companies will soon follow so you will
never have to turn your monitor again. And then, finally, hardware
builders will catch up and deliver the monitors in upside down mode with
the stand on top.
