    It's definitely not trivial - it's one of the reasons that people continually mention how to arrange office space to help XP.

    We put the computers on a wide table in the center with enough space for two people to sit. When someone wants to switch, the other person slides to the side.

    The other key element is to provide breath mints at every station.My personal belief is that pair programming is best done when there's enough space and breath mints for everyone involved. :)
