I see. Thanks. Do you know of a good way to raise the height of a chair? I tried to figure out the underside of mine, but...
The internet cord is stretched across the entire room already and can't be pulled much farther than it already is, so I don't know if I could move the computer (which is a netbook, but there's no wifi, and it's hooked up to a monitor because it has a pathetic screen anyway-- so the keyboard is of necessity stuck with the rest of it up there).
And mostly, I just can't change anything around. No, seriously, anything.
Any suggestions for minimizing the risk of RSI, at least?
Ethernet cables (and ethernet gender changers for sticking two cables together) are cheap. Much cheaper than furniture.
If your chair looks like it might have a height adjustment, it probably does. The controls are often on the armrests (presumably because it's one of the more frequently used features). If you can't find it by experimentation, look for a model number on the chair and try Googling that. Some chairs have online manuals.
