Mobility Tips

Tips for ThinkPad users on travel, performance, security and more


Ergonomics

If you are a mobile worker and transport your ThinkPad often, switch carrying hands/shoulders periodically. Also, consider ordering a backpack or rolling carrier.

If you use your ThinkPad on an airplane, choose a bulkhead seat or an exit aisle, which provides more space to use your ThinkPad comfortably.

If you plan to use your ThinkPad in a hotel, choose one with a business center or one that has rooms with desks and data ports.

If you use your ThinkPad in a car, never operate it while driving. Pull off the road and move to the passenger seat, placing your ThinkPad on a sturdy surface, such as a briefcase or book.

Tilt the ThinkPad screen to provide the sharpest image; be careful to avoid screen glare.

If you absolutely need to use your ThinkPad in bed, support your lower back with a pillow or rolled-up towel. Place your ThinkPad on a sturdy surface, such as a book or binder.

Take occasional breaks from working at your terminal to do other activities using different muscle groups. For example: meet with a colleague, make photocopies, return telephone calls.
