Whether it is for work or play, which would you say is the most comfortable position for you and your laptop? Would you prefer sitting up straight in an office type chair? Reclining on a sofa with your feet up? or propping the pillows and sitting upright in bed? My favorite would be my veranda, where l sit at a table with my laptop, a cool drink or a cup of tea.

Sitting upright on the bed with a laptop is ideal for me. If it's a desktop computer then I'd prefer sitting up straight in an office type chair.

I like a 45 degree angle..but if I get too sleepy, I'll sit on the computer chair.

@Kandae11 If I need to print something I must go to my desk top and it’s slow as molasses .

I still use a desktop

. I have a laptop but for some reason I'm just most comfortable plopping myself on this office chair and using the computer at the desk.

It should be on my lap, while I listen to what’s going on in my house, are the teenagers fighting? Is the phone ringing? Is it raining?

I prefer it in bed with pillows behind my back. Well, in winter. In summer, on my balcony in a half sitting position on my sunbathing chair.

For myself, I have to sit in certain chair here as I am not comfortable on a laptop anywhere else. I occasionally do take it to the sofa, but that is not comfortable.

If I am using my laptop it is because I am working outside, under our porch, sitting at the outside table.

I'm lying on my stomach in my bed with my laptop in front of me. That's how I'm usually myLotting. *shrug* This house was too small for me to bring my computer desk with me when we moved.

My laptop is on a desk and I have an office chair. When we're travelling in the caravan, I sit on the bed, leaning back against the headboard and work with the laptop on my lap.

I either sit in the kitchen, or on the bed. I like the bed better when I write or study, but if I start feeling sleepy and I need to focus then I move to the kitchen.

Yes it is easy to fall asleep in some positions. The good thing about a smart phone versus a laptop is that you can take it anywhere.
