I think it has different names. I'm sure there are DIY ones, but you can also find different ones to buy. It's basically an adjustable laptop stand, so it can be used like the picture or you can fold it around and use it on a table when you're able to sit down. Main thing is to make sure it comes with some kind of clamp or way to hold the laptop in place, as well as the legs/arms that swivel.
Amazon has some but, again, you'll want to do some research to get the one you want. Prices seem to be under $100 for the ones I've seen.
I bought one yesterday 😁
Just waiting for it to arrive...
Just in time for the leagues to start up again!
Oh, great.... :)
All kidding aside, I really hope it works out the way you want it to.
Gonna try it out after dinner, but so far it looks like it may work. It won’t be the same as sitting at my desk, if course, but probably better than how it is right now ;0)
Well, improvement is what you want. If it doesn't make it better than what you have, then you might as well keep doing what you're doing. I'm sure there will be some getting used to it. Not sure how comfortable things will be for an extended period of time, but if you get your own arm placement right, that will probably get you closer to where you want to be.
I honestly don’t get that last sentence, lol. Read it all aain and again, but no use - lmao
I’m still on my phone at the moment. It has become such a habit...
I won’t be dz astated if it doesn’t work. But then I really need a new phone. This one is acting up regularly - good excuse for finally getting a new phone, imo :0)
There was a point where I was buying a new phone every other year. That's since slowed to basically every four years, since our iPhones tend to last that long. But you can usually tell when it's time to upgrade.
Okay, let's see if I can explain the 'arm placement' sentence better. What I was trying to get at, if you're basically lying flat on your back then I could see where having your arms up like in the picture over a period of time would get tiring, so the ergonomics of it all would have to be figured out. If you're actually propped up by pillows or something, then the ergonomics change. It's just the idea of getting your arms positioned so that they don't get tired, or your wrists, or maybe even your shoulders and neck. I've never attempted to type on a laptop before like the girl in the picture, so I'm just anticipating some positioning required to make it comfortable to type like that for any length of time. :)
I get it now. :0)
You have a point. Will try it out tomorrow.
Anout the phone: it’s really time to get another one. But for several reasons I want to move away from iPhone again. One of those reasons is the price. But then again, the good ones are all terribly expensive. The crypto prices really have to go back up before I can afford one ;0)
