Maintaining a high level of comfort when using a notebook computer may be more challenging than when using a desktop computer. Therefore, you should be especially alert to your body’s signals, such as any feeling of discomfort. Also, be sure to adhere to the key principles presented earlier in this section.

The following strategies are intended to help you maintain comfort when using a notebook computer:

On the road

In a hotel, use a blanket for padding your chair and a rolled towel as an inventive way to support your lower back area.

Seeking comfort

When working with a notebook computer, keep your shoulders and neck relaxed and your head balanced over your shoulders. You may find it comfortable to periodically use a

support surface (your briefcase, a bed table, firm blanket, pillow, or large book) between your lap and your notebook computer.

Being inventive

Use pillows, blankets, towels, and books to:

◆Raise the height of your seat.

◆Create a footrest, if needed.

◆Support your back.

◆Raise your computer to elevate the keyboard and display.

◆Provide arm supports, if you are working on a couch or bed.

◆Provide padding wherever needed.

Transporting the computer

If you load up your carrying case with accessories and papers, avoid shoulder strain by using a cart or a carrying case with built-in wheels.

HINT: Notebook Comfort

When you must work where proper seating or support may not be available, such as on airplanes or in wilderness areas, change your position often while working and take brief breaks more frequently.
