My half broken laptop is propped up against a complicated structure of clothes and books.

couldn't your laptop have been half working?
Misunderstood.

I don't have a desktop computer any more. I have a netbook which I either use in the loungeroom or the bedroom.

Yep, the same. Either on my big coffee table in the loungeroom or in bed.

Geez, that netbook didn't last very long. Now I have a bigger laptop and put it on a portable cushioned-table-thing (which has turned out to be one of the best presents I have ever gotten) which I take wherever I will be using my computer.

I usually use my laptop whilst sitting at an old dinner table. On the top floor of this house and on a self-made bench-like seat. Don't move the laptop about very often, I could add.

There's a slow desktop in another room, one floor lower, but I hardly use the thing any more.

Just be sure not to block the vents.  You do not want your computer to have a hot time in the old town tonight.

^I use my laptop with the left edge hanging over the edge of the portable table so it gets air into its vents. Also gives me more room that way so I can use a mouse.

That's fairly geeky.

That HP laptop I had didn't last very long either. Now I have my mum's old Toshiba which I primarily use in my bedroom. It's not exactly comfortable - I get a sore tailbone sitting on my bed after a while.

Not sure if this counts but I have a Kindle Fire that I use to access the internet. Most of the time in my bedroom or the lounge room.
