I'm too tall to do a full squat. Sitting on an 8-inch footstool I could manage, but it'd be very hard to type!

    I’m 6’-5” and really don’t know what you’re talking about. You don’t need your computer to also be on the floor, and frankly if I were to try this I would need a raised platform to reach my desk(which now I’m considering making). Being tall is an advantage here.

    You are 195.5 cm tall. I'm slightly jealous, not because you're taller than me, though you are. Your height in cm just sounds like a better (more rounded/ even/ some sort of muchness) number than mine. I am 6'3", or 192.3 cm tall.
