Is anybody here happy with using their iBooks or small screen
PowerBooks as desktop machines? Do you hook up an extra keyboard
and mouse? Happy with the small screen? Or do you hook up a
larger monitor? Elevate the laptop on a stand?
I used to use an eMac and an iBook and keep them synchronized. Now I
use only a 15" AlBook 1.25GHz, 1GB RAM, OS 10.4.4. At my main desk, I
have a computer "hutch" with a shelf raised a few inches off the
table top, and on top of that I have a Road Tools "Podium" CoolPad
that raises the screen to a perfect height for me.
I use an Apple Bluetooth kepboard, and a Microsoft Intellimouse
Optical at my desk. When I'm upstairs, I have the smaller CoolPad
that I use either on a table or on my lap, and find the trackpad
(with the addition of iScroll2 for two-finger scrolling) comfortable
most of the time.
I'd probably do the same with a 12" screen, but I'm glad to have the
extra screen real estate with the 15".

Harry Corsover
