WFH since 2006 in 5 different houses (one with wheels), so I've had a bunch of different setups. Started on a desktop with triple monitors, but my sweet spot seems to be a 15" laptop with a 15" ASUS M168B USB monitor next to it. I don't actually need more than two monitors, and this setup travels super well in a backpack for use in hotel rooms and jobsites.

I've had dedicated office space in and out of the house, and I've had corners of the bedroom. Any of the above were fine with me, but some people prefer having dedicated space for specific things. Nothing special about my desk or chair, but I did splurge on my Realforce Topre keyboard and Shure Aonic 50 headphones.

Kensington Orbit trackball has been the easiest on my RSI, and fits great on my current desk's keyboard tray, where I wouldn't have room for a mouse. Logitech Brio 4K webcam. Teams and Zoom can both blur the background pretty well even without a green screen, but I have thought about adding some lighting. I have a USB mic for recording audio, but my headphones work fine for conferencing.

My current experiment is adding a NUC with a third monitor for status dashboards so I can keep them visible at all times. Still tweaking the setup, but I think I like it.
