When someone writes he is working from a laptop, do you picture exactly that? Him perched near the edge of a kitchen chair (chrome with the cracked black rubber booties at the leg ends and that cross-hatched grimy blue-with-the-flowers vinyl seat and back cover with just the one slice top left with its fluffy whiteish edges revealing tan/orange foam), black laptop made a bit shabby by the scene and balanced precariously on just that, the top of his lap? He's hunched a bit?
Do you?
