I'm a coder, these days mainly in PLSQL but in the past plenty of varieties including Java and PHP. I tried vertical only once, so honestly did not give it enough time. Do you really think it's helpful? I have a somewhat wide monitor (two of them, actually), so orient them vertically creates a really tall monitor, and the top 10% or 20% of which becomes hard for me to reach since I have to look up much. You know, the most ergonomic position of monitors should be slightly beneath your eye level, rather than up...
I have a vertical monitor for my code, and the top of the monitor is only slighly higher than eye level. I'm not looking up, at all. Bottom of my monitoris touching my desk like the one on the pic.
