I've since found a solution using a rolling table sort of deal I have. I put the PC on that, and rolled it next to my desk. It's longer than the PC and has a shelf underneath so it gives me plenty of extra space now. It really opened things up for me. Thanks though.

If your PC is not a laptop but a desktop can you place it on the floortop?

I don't like to have them on the floor. Cat hair tends to accrue down there and munge up my fans.

Would it be possible to avoid the cat hair problem by somehow affixing a funnel of some sort perhaps 3D printed which directs air flow from the vertical to the presumably horizontal fan input? - Best

Not without severely restricting airflow. I have a 1000watt PSU with a fan that sits on the bottom of the chassis, about 1-1.5cm above the floor (just the height of the feet for clearance). Any kind of "scoop" I fashion there would hinder things too much I think. I already had overheating issues with this PSU in the past (with a different chassis) so I am loath to mess with it.
The other thing is, the case is basically a small cube, and although it's all glass, i can and do use the surface for plastic items like my TV remote and gamepad. In that sense, it really doesn't take up much space at all, even being on the cart.
And with the cart I've got quite a bit of space now anyway.

I have a plastic container under my desk that I have convinced myself is a good footstool, and a stack of containers to either side of me that I have convinced myself make good side tables.
Now I just have to convince myself that it isn't a pain in the glutes to clear them off every time I want to get something out, or put it away.
It is just all in my head, you see. It is .. just .... all ...... in ........ my ................ uh, yeah.

When my self and my wife where looking for a house to buy, I had 2 criteria.
1) the rooms must be high. Like way bigger than me high. I'm 6'2" , doorways are about a foot higher, then about 2' above that to the ceiling. All in all the room is near to 10' tall
2) we had a big loft space. And we do. In the centre the height is close to that of the rooms below.
The reason for number 1, is I have a false ceiling in my office now, well sort of anyway. I've put extra joists accross, then put loft boards coming out about 3' on all 4 walls.
I have a small pair of step ladders, and all my gear is sorted into labeled, plastic tuff crates, inside each crate are a variety of different schemes, some none, some 2 or 3 fishing tackle boxes.
When I want something, I step on my step ladders, lift the box down onto my desk, get the item I want, then put the box back.
The false ceiling is way above head height so doesn't impact normal use of the room.
As for the loft, I have that loft boarded from front to back, and I've panneled off the roof trusses with ply board, put small shelf units in them, I crawl in to defined openings, small pull chord light in there, those are my storage cupboards, in the center, I have a 19" rack with my servers in and a sturdy work bench at one end where I can work on things to heavy for my office desk.
The only problem I have, is that, as I get older, I start to hurt more climbing up and down ladders all the time.

Hi All,
Back at Work facing Dilbert hell. I need a KPI number to be issued a Laptop & ID Credentials fine apart from the fact I need a company email to request a PKI, which can't come from any other account (it has been tried). So to get on to the system as a new starter I need to use my company email to request a PKI, but I can' get a PKI until I use a system that I can't use until PKI  , whats worse is I need to use my company phone (which you guessed it I need a PKI to be issued with to get the access code for the task on Monday). At the monent they have me using a surface that isn't connect to anything, even the web.  so Monday I am lightly to be standing outside (hopefully not in the rain) trying to do a job that has been needed since last year and very shortly to incure penalty fees Because the Covid restrictions caused everyone panic about security.

Are you permanent or contracting? If the latter then things may not run smoothly (voice of experience).

To be honest I though it was a contract, they seem to think its permanent...

There's a reason why the words "onboarding" and "waterboarding" are so similar.
