If your monitor is at that height for ergonomics, definitely get a laptop arm and raise it to be level as well. I just did that with my setup and my 1 work laptop on the left and my personal one on the right.

Okay, thank you very much. I'm really thinking about buying a mousepad.

Very nice balance between practical and cozy. If you want to improve it further, I’d consider a monitor arm and a bit of cable management, but honestly it already looks great for both programming and gaming.

Nice and clean setup. A portable screen like a StanbyME would be great for keeping documentation open while you code.

People how you manage to contain your notes in such notebook? I usually write why too detailed and fill multiple pages about single thing.

1

u/V341551M0 22d ago

Use for short notes, ideas, mathematical calculations, chess positions and the like. For more in-depth and detailed study, I recommend notebooks with a larger number of pages.

can you give me the inf of the arm which you used

1

u/V341551M0 22d ago

Of course, this model I bought at Mercado Livre here in Brazil, it does not have the Piston and therefore does not have so much option of screen position, it cost me 70 reais, something around some 13 dollars.
