Using external displays connecting to the laptop is very common in the office. The height of the external screen is very friendly to our neck for a long day work. And it is more convenient if you use an external keyboard and mouse at the same time.

In this situation, it will be a good idea to set the laptop aside to give more free space back to your desk. And the best pose for a labtop is to make it stand, and better with its lid closed too, like this:

It's not over.

The windows laptop like Thinkpad X13or HP Elitebook have a feature that one can open the screen of the laptop to a flat position.

Have a try, and hope this stand make you a better day, tomorrow, :D
