smart computer use?

The most significant computer upgrade you can do is upgrading your monitor. The second most significant computer upgrade you can do is to upgrade your chair. Yes, I know that a good chair is just a piece of office furniture. Just think of all the time you’ll spend sitting this chair though. The alone justifies getting something that is very comfortable.

You’ll sit in front of your computer for many hours

If you do sit in front of a computer for hours, you should maybe find some ways to make the best of the situation. Make sure you have good posture, don’t strain your eyes and get up and walk around or exercise for short periods of time to keep from physically straining.

You should sit in comfort.

Why not upgrade that hard, upright wooden chair

To a comfortable office-style chair?

If you can somehow figure out how to slide a big leather recliner into your desk, then you should try to do that. I don’t know how many desks can fit a recliner, but that would be the best option for comfort while you work.

In conclusion…

Get yourself a good chair and a good monitor. Then go after a video card, RAM or a hard drive or something.

Are you currently trying to figure out what you should spend some extra cash on, in terms of upgrading your computer system? I suggest a larger computer monitor as your first choice, if you don’t have one. A large LCD monitor is the best initial investment that a computer user can make, in my opinion. You need to be able to see everything clearly without straining your eyes. Eye strain is a big problem with computer users.

Take a Break From Staring At Your Screen Every Now And Then.

Even if you already have a bigger monitor, you still need to rest your eyes.

Get up and walk away from the computer every now and then when you have stretches that you need to be sitting in front of your machine for work or play. It happens every now and then, that you need to spend more time in front of your computer to complete a task for work or personal reasons.

You shouldn’t strain yourself during these instances, however. But, now I am digressing. Back to the topic.

Bigger is Better. Go with a 22″ Wide-screen LCD Monitor.

If your computer system is relevant with the current times in the graphics department (good video card and wide-screen support, which is common), then you will be able to use a 22″ wide-screen LCD monitor with your computer.

This is a significant upgrade over the crappy 17″ CRT monitor that you might be using.

1 of 2 significant upgrades for your computer system.

The upgrade to a better monitor is one of two things that I suggest as signification upgrades to your computer system. I also suggest that you get a good chair. A chair is #2 behind having a great monitor for your system.

You might already have a large monitor

If you already have a nice monitor:

Nice monitor qualifiers

• 22″ wide-screen lcd monitor
• 19″ wide-screen lcd monitor
• 19″ standard lcd monitor
• 20″ standard lcd monitor
• etc.

Not-nice monitor qualifiers

• 15″ CRT (with faded white/tan plastic casing)
• 17″ CRT monitor (with before-mentioned faded white/tan plastic casing)
• etc.

… then you can pretty much discard this whole article. Thanks for reading. Continue on if you have not upgraded your monitor yet.

Upgrade Your Monitor

To a large, brighter, wider, easier to view lcd screen as soon as you are able. Then get a better chair.
