Sit upright with your knees, elbows and hips at an approximately 90 angle when you are at the PC.

Place the monitor directly in front of you, and turn the top of the monitor screen even with your eye level so that your eyes look slightly downward.

Keep the mouse close to the keyboard, and if necessary, use a wrist rest for support to reduce the pressure on your wrists while typing.

Use your Desktop PC in a comfortably-lit area, and keep it away from sources of glare such as windows and straight sunlight.

Take regular mini-breaks from using your Desktop PC.

Wired connection Use an RJ-45 cable to connect your computer to a DSL/cable modem or a local area network (LAN).

Connecting via a DSL/cable modem To connect via a DSL/cable modem:
