If you use a laptop in a fixed workstation at home and/or in your office, please refer to the links below for general laptop equipment, for appropriate hubs and connectors that enable you to use an external keyboard and mouse, and for fixed workstation equipment such as laptop stands and adjustable height work surfaces. Please refer to our "Laptop Tips" webpage to set up your workstation correctly, and read: Laptop Beefs and Laptop Props

If you use a laptop on the road and need portability, refer to the general laptop equipment link for connectors, and the link for portable workstation equipment for portable keyboards, laptop stands, and backpacks. You need to know how to carry lightweight compact equipment with you and set up your laptop quickly in a variety of different environments.

To use your laptop safely at a fixed workstation, you will need to elevate the laptop so the top of the screen is at your straight ahead vision and an external keyboard and mouse is at the correct typing height (see Prevention > Workstation > Workstation Design). You can choose to use either a docking station (if you do not want to disconnect the keyboard, mouse, ethernet and power cords every time you remove the laptop) or a laptop stand.

Please note that if you have a work surface that is the correct height for your external keyboard and mouse, the laptop can be set on anything available (e.g. a stack of books) to raise the top of the display to eye level, as long as the laptop is close enough to see when your head is aligned with your hips.

BACKPACKS BACK TO TOP
Evaluate your luggage to determine whether a laptop backpack or a rolling laptop case will work best for you. Laptops with all of their accessories are very heavy, so we do not recommend shoulder bags!

Breathable padded shoulder straps, velcro and side buckles to keep the two compartments secured for portability.

TABLETS BACK TO TOP
ALL TABLETS
Most tablets, except the Toshiba Thrive, do not have USB ports and rely on Bluetooth technology for connection with mice and keyboards. Please refer to our other web pages for portable bluetooth keyboards and mice. Features that are desirable when shopping for accessories to your tablet are ones that multitask such as cases that also serve as stands and have integrated keyboards. The accessories which will cause the least injury to your body will allow you to position the tablet at a correct viewing height, use and external keyboard and mouse at the correct height for your arms and hands, thus detached from the tablet itself. Few manufacturers are considering this in their designs at this point. Here are our top choices for products available on the market.
