• Isn't most of that ergonomic desk setup stuff from the 70s and quite outdated?

    The whole top of screen at eye level doesn't make sense to me. Where do you position windows etc on the screen, where is the detail you are looking at? Never right at the top of the screen.

    You're right, that is outdated. It's because of the way older, non-GUI operating systems worked. Updated advice is that you should look at the middle of the screen.

  • This makes sense to me, yet if that's how it is 90% of laptop stands I see online are way too low.

    I'm having my MacBook on top of shoeboxes right now, and with the top of the screen at eye level the laptop is already 27cm over my desk.
    Looks ridiculous but my back likes it!
