Comfortable set-up for laptop
 

Hey,

Does anyone know anything to use for a laptop when you are sitting in bed? I usually have to set up like 10 pillows to get a comfortable set-up and was wondering if there are any types of pillows or something that supports your back and definately the neck while allowing you to sit up...something to hold the laptop would just be a plus, but i can put it in my lap if I need to

mine's set at a much lower angle than in the picture, when using in bed i just prop my head up with an extra pillow folded in half - this thing is also good for if you use the laptop on the couch while watch tv, etc.

if you have one of those breakfast in bed tables, that might work well.

Also check ebay, do a search for lap desk, you might be able to find it cheaper.

that's probably because you've never used it but ok, well, to the contrary, your 'solid wood stationary bed desk' looks like just about the most uncomfortable sitting position i've ever seen for extended use while laying in bed [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] (+LOL at $40 shipping)

If you have an endtable - a STURDY endtable - beside you, you may want to look into one of the laptop arms from Ergotron. I'm using one right now and just swivel in front of the chair when I want to work on it and swivel it out of the way when I'm not using it.
