- tpmoney 3y agoNo worse than using a laptop in your lap would be.
- olyjohn 3y agoThat's why they aren't called laptops anymore. They're called notebooks. Because you're not supposed to use them on your lap.
- retrocryptid 3y agoThe funny thing here is I often use a paper notebook on my lap (on a clipboard), but rarely use a laptop on my lap.
- gnicholas 3y agoI sit on a reclining desk chair, about 4 feet back from a 46" TV. I have a lap desk with a bluetooth keyboard and trackpad. Love it! I'm interested in trying this out, to be able to have a bigger screen, and to be able to take it anywhere.
- retrocryptid 3y agoThat sounds fun. I do that from time to time, but it gets fumbly for me. You must have a better chair (or keyboard) if it's working for you. Also.. my TV isn't nearly 4k (or even 2k)
- gnicholas 3y agoI did pick up a nice chair when some nearby offices were being vacated a couple years ago. I have used a decade-old Apple BT keyboard and trackpad. They're great (though the batteries have to be changed every month or so). My TV is 1080p, and I wish it were a bit higher resolution, for sure.
- filoleg 3y agoI have desks at home, work, at parents' house, etc. So i have a physical desk in all places to place a keyboard on. The issue is that all those desks are different, and I am not carrying the same setup everywhere. I am not going to bring my monitors and cables and the rest on a flight to visit parents. Or if I am working from a hotel. And I am not carrying my entire setup every time i switch between working in the office or at home. But just a headset + kbm? No problem, especially since consistency of the setup being the same is guaranteed, and the setup time is zero.
