So I'm just curious as to how everyone does their work from home....
Do you use a laptop?
Do you use a desktop?
Or do you use both?
Do you find that one is easier to work from than the other?
So I'll start it off...I use a desktop with two monitors every single day to work from home. I like my set up like this because it is easier for me to handle and work on my orders. I do lot of social media and seo promotion, so to be sitting in the right chair with both my monitors is the way I like to work. I have tried working from a laptop before and it just doesn't work out well for me. I can never get comfortable and the one screen is just not enough for me!
Let's hear how everyone else prefers to work!!

What We Know: In a recent case, a 12-year-old boy developed a sponge-patterned skin discoloration on his left thigh after playing a computer game for several hours a day over a period of a few months. Even though he noticed that the laptop was getting hot, he didn’t move it. In another case, a Virginia law student sought medical attention after developing a skin discoloration on her legs.
Dr. Kimberly Salkey, who treated the woman, found that the bottom of her computer, which she used for several hours each day, reached a temperature of 125 degrees.
Dr. Neil J. Korman, a dermatologist and director of the Clinical Trials Unit at University Hospitals Case Medical Center in Cleveland, said that the medical name for “toasted skin syndrome“ is erythema ab igne, which means “redness by fire.”
“It’s a condition that was originally caused by people sitting for too long in front of a fire — maybe a fireplace or a space heater,” he told AOL Health. “It’s related to the skin having prolonged exposure to a certain high temperature, like with a laptop. There was a case of a very obese patient who was resting the laptop on his belly. He developed discoloration. It doesn’t go away.”

For the last 8 or 9 years I've dedicated to a laptop for my work because I can be completely mobile. And by completely, I mean I can even work from my car if I set up my phone as a hotspot and then link my laptop to it lol Usually I'll have a desktop at home for the family, my personal laptop and a work laptop. My work laptop usually needs to be switched out every couple years because I use it so much that the hard drive starts to go out on me. When this happens I'll swap my personal laptop and make it my "new" work laptop. I'll begin the transfer of files from my old work laptop to my new one and once that's done I'll either get a new hard drive for my old laptop or I'll just get a new laptop online from newegg, frys, or somewhere like that I had a desktop a long time ago but I didn't like the fact that I couldn't go out to a coffee shop and work if I wanted. Having a desktop means you have to do your work at home, unless you buy a laptop as well. But even if you have both a desktop and laptop, you run into the problem of not having all the same files and software on each system. I know you can store everything in the cloud or on a VPS, but if that gets corrupted you'll lose all your stuff :( For the last 8 or 9 years I've dedicated to a laptop for my work because I can be completely mobile.
