As it literally says in that text you linked, not every posture works for everyone. I did not claim that a laptop leads to the best situation for ergonomics, I just wanted to debunk the "there's no way using a laptop could ever be healthy" claim which both a professional I know as well as my own experience don't agree with. It can be healthy, though admittedly most people don't do it right.

I'm glad I listened to his advice because it seemed to fix my issues for good. If you found a comfortable setup that's different then that's great as well.

Your original post wasn't just limited to "in my case". Your original post talked about your PT specifically claiming laptops were better.

Please provide proper sources, not random hearsay.

Clearly we need something like OSHA to enforce minimal workplace safety, but is OSHA meaningful as an authority on general health issues like computer use? A couple of years ago I might have said yes, but after recent events I find it really hard to put much weight on the opinions of these bureaucratic agencies.

The truth is, it's really hard to do a double-blinded study for these kinds long-term health concerns.
