Elevate the laptop a few inches above your desk, placing it on a stable support surface, such as a laptop stand or a stack of thick books. Your eyes should naturally hit the top third of your screen when you look straight ahead.
Moreover, where should I place my laptop at my desk?
Setting up your laptop for occasional use
- Use a chair that supports a comfortable upright or slightly reclined posture.
- Position your laptop in your lap for the most neutral wrist posture that you can achieve.
- In a reclined position, prop your feet up to maintain a neutral trunk/thigh angle.
Additionally, where should I not put my laptop? Don't place the laptop in direct sunlight. A table directly over a furnace duct is also a poor choice. A hot environment can easily cause a notebook computer to overheat. Make sure to store notebook computers at room temperature.
Likewise, people ask, what do I do if my desk is too high?
If the desk is too low and can't be adjusted, place sturdy boards or blocks under the desk legs. If the desk is too high and can't be adjusted, raise your chair. Use a footrest to support your feet as needed. If your desk has a hard edge, pad the edge or use a wrist rest.
What is the correct height for a laptop desk?
Typically, for most users the laptop will need to be raised anywhere from 5 to 10 inches in order to provide the proper height.
