WFH product supervisor and Redditor nndscrptuser (“Consumer”) confirmed off the MacBook rig in a submit entitled, “The Every thing WFH Setup.” And it’s fairly a whole workstation. They run two MacBooks and two PCs with an enormous LG sensible TV and two mini shows. I’d truly by no means heard of a Beelink Mini PC (with a 7-inch touchscreen), so I discovered that fascinating.
