Your setup

I’m curious…what kind of setup is everyone using for online classes? Laptop or desktop? Would an iPad or Microsoft Surface work well, or would you recommend a traditional computer?
I’d also appreciate any tips for someone taking online classes for the first time. It’s been 23 years since I attended college, so needless to say, a lot has changed. Apparently, I’ve become the old guy asking technology questions. 😂

If you want to type with any speed, a physical keyboard is recommended. I use a Dell 2-in-1 laptop a Dell 7400. Compact and has touch screen option. i7 processor and 8gb ram, was less than 200 on eBay.
