I'm going to setup a desk station with one vertical monitor on the left, and two stacked horizontal monitors on the right. Monitors are about 7kg so I'm going to need some beefy arms to hold them onto my standing desk.

What monitor arms have you had good / bad experiences with?

I've been looking at the Ergotron items but they are kinda spendy

Here is my current setup. My laptop is an incredible gaming device but I'm kind of hung up on the fact that I don't much enjoy gaming at my desk. I much prefer to game in a lounging position where I can put my feet up. Because of this, I'm considering splitting my priorities for gaming and browsing into separate devices.

I'm thinking that a mini pc might be a good option for my desk setup. I would use it mostly for browsing, some light server needs, and (possibly?) some light modeling/design work using freecad (for 3d printing shenanigans). I've been eyeballing the minisforum um790 pro or something similar.

My gaming needs would likely be outsourced to a handheld pc. I'm pretty set on getting a onexfly and loading it up with bazzite. I know they're expensive, but the form factor and hardware capability really has me sold on this one. I know it would handle everything I wanted to play on it, and more. I've even been wondering if it would be a good daily driver with a dock or something and just omit the mini pc idea altogether.

TLDR: Is it crazy to put a big TV on the floor for a couch battle station so that my eyes at couch height are at the top of the TV on the floor?

Context: I got a good price (buddy doing a clearance sale) on a 100" (254cm) hisense tv, so I want to setup a couch battle station.

I've always been near sighted, and I want to use this as a opportunity to move my display farther away from me. So put the 4k TV on the ground on the other side of the room, sit on the couch with a wireless keyboard / mouse and be productive.

When I'm sitting on the couch my eyes are about 120cm (~50in) from the ground, and putting the TV on the ground puts the top of the screen at 131cm (88in).

Anyone else doing a on-the-ground tv setup?

What quality of life add-ons can you suggest?
