A work surface system provides ergonomic benefits to traditional office environments in a retrofit fashion. The work surface system includes a work surface (12) and a support (18, 20) for supporting the work surface (12) at an angle with respect to the horizontal. The work surface (12) provides support for the user's arms while using a laptop computer and permits optional use of an optional full sized keyboard. The work surface (12) can be smaller than the surface on which the work surface system rests. The angle of the work surface can be adjustable if desired, and the work surface can also be mounted on the support in a pivoting fashion to permit the work surface (12) to be tipped up to permit access to a laptop computer and storage space beneath the work surface if desired. The work surface has a first edge proximal to the location of a user of the work surface and has a second edge distal to the location of a user of a keyboard supported on the work surface, the second edge having a cutout portion (26) of a size suitable for accepting a laptop computer. |
