Set the computer on a flat surface at a comfortable height and distance. The
display should be no higher than eye level to avoid eye strain.
Place the computer so that it is directly in front of you when you work and
make sure you have adequate space to easily operate other devices.
Allow adequate space behind the computer to let you freely adjust the display.
The display should be angled to reduce glare and maximize visibility.
If you use a paper holder, set it at about the same height and distance as the
computer.
