I’m still getting used to its size, and it’s possible that it’s actually too big for ergonomic purposes. The MacBook Air is plugged into a 27 inch Apple Thunderbolt Display that I purchased refurbished from Apple when my old 23 inch Apple Cinema Display stopped working. I made a bootable backup about once a week.

I also have a 1TB LaCie external drive that I use to make a bootable SuperDuper! backup of the Mac so that I can keep working if (when) the main drive fails. It has an internal 256GB SSD disk which I’m always in danger of filling up, so most of my working files are stored on an external 500GB Western Digital USB My Passport drive. I have one computer in my office, a 4-year old MacBook Air that has served me well.
It was the best office investment I’ve ever made. My desk chair is a custom-made chair from Chairs Limited in Dartmouth it adjusts in all the right ways. My office desk is a piece of government surplus I bought at The Clearance Centre in Summerside on the advice of my ergonomics consultant, its chief selling point being a crank that allows it to be adjusted up and down. In addition to the second floor space, we also rent a corner of the old PEI Printmakers Guide studio in the basement, which is where my letterpress printing operation is housed. On the upside, though, every Tuesday morning that are babies and infants being entertained by The Music Man, and what’s not to love about that. The only downside of this location is that the theatre in The Guild is a paper-thin wall away, meaning that if there’s a Battle of The Bands, or a long run of Anne & Gilbert in the theatre, the effects can be mind-altering. It’s 286 square feet of open space with large windows looking town Queen Street to the water. My office is on the second floor of The Guild in downtown Charlottetown, about 4 minutes walk along Richmond Street from my house.

Using Mita’s post as both inspiration and template, here’s a snapshot of my hardware and software setup as of the spring of 2015.
