Laptops have a complete disregard for ergonomics. If you spend any significant amount of time infront of a computer, a laptop is disastrous for your health. At the very least, invest in an extra monitor and proper keyboard.
By proper keyboard, I mean one that is full-sized, has mechanical switches, and is appropriately laid out so that you don't strain your wrist and tendons.
- mjhoy 16y agoI wouldn't say that all laptops have a 'complete' disregard: some are better than others. The MacBook Air keyboard is surprisingly comfortable.
- joebadmo 16y agoErgonomics is about a lot more than the keyboard, though. A laptop forces your arms/wrists and/or head/neck into ergonomically unsound positions, so unless there are laptops out there that transform into ergo hardware, I agree with the gp that laptops completely disregard ergonomics.
- freerobby 16y ago+1. Overall a good list, but I hugely disagree with recommending a laptop and no keyboard/mouse peripherals.
