Comfy ass

Screen height is important. If you are using the laptop as main screen, don't. get a 30"-42" I have found that proper height and position can solve most problems. When I first thought I was going to get CTS I experimented with phone books for my Mouse pad height. Since then, I have found the correct hand position and mouse for me (Razers and a Razer sphex skin), and usually have no issues (and phone books never make it into my office anymore). I also began to have neck problems when I first used CAD, but have learned to avoid that as well.

To imagine someone with your talent designing on a laptop screen. It's criminal.

I (was) travelling across the country every week for nearly a year so a laptop was my only choice. In a few months after I have saved some money I am going to get a Wacom CIntiq and a tower. But just moving house right now so very short on cash!

My setup will be Cintiq then laptop on a riser with wireless keyboard and mouse. The ciniq will be a secondary screen for the laptop but I will use it as my main. Eventually I will then upgrade to a tower (Money permitting)!

is that a $700.00 chair?

Hope they are not skid marks on the seat (although it looks comfy for that, too)

Its an Aeron, they cost over $1500 (£950) http://www.johnlewis.com/230627151/Product.aspx although I have seen them in the UK for £750 online new.

However I bought it second hand from gum tree for a fraction of the price as it has a few scrapes on the metal and some marks on the seat but that doesn't bother me as I would never buy one new!

Why do you have to buy your own chair? I thought you were employed?

You and Liam?

Though I imagine if Liam SketchUps his room it'll end up like a HR Giger scene
