Improving ergonomics while working on notebook computer

One problem with notebook computers is that the screen is attached to the keyboard. If the keyboard is in a comfortable position, then you may have to slouch to look down at the screen.

One option is to use a separate monitor but the notebook computer's monitor may be in the way. Then, if you use an external keyboard, then you can place the keyboard and monitor anywhere you want.

Another option is the ThinkPad Adjustable Notebook Stand. Worst case is that this can raise the screen to eye-level position and allow a separate keyboard to be used.

Update: I also found that Kensington provides a notebook stand docking station.

And if I were to consider speakers to be hooked up to a notebook computer, I might consider the Logitech Notebook Speakers which gets the audio feed and power from the USB connection.
