Monitor, keyboard, mouse. No need to start young with body problems stemming from all day only on a laptop.

We have desks with the monitors at eye level and arms comfortably at/just above desk level. Younger one has a kitchen stool to rest feet on since desk is high.

I've been using a laptop for work for over 20 years without issue. I fail to see what the need for this is.

Being on a laptop for hours and hours is not good for your neck.

I am surprised more people don't know this. Your screen should be elevated to eye level.

Casual use for homework is different from hours per day for distance learning.


You put the laptop on a textbook to elevate it to eye level. Voila!


More than one book though, unless your child is very small.

Yeah, I don't see the appeal of Duet, at $20/year. In a few years I've bought a very nice second monitor, though I guess if you need touchscreen itd be more

Just a laptop for my freshman. I can’t believe they really need two screens.

I am a teacher and I am thinking of taking his screen to be my second screen and he can just use his laptop.


I can see for watching the class on one screen and doing the work on the other. Or for the same reason I do - so I can keep in the info visible while also doing the work.
