COMPUTER TABLES
First Claim
1. A computer table disposed on a ground surface, the computer table comprising:
- a support surface;
at least one first actuator operably connected to the support surface and capable of altering the height of the support surface relative to a ground surface on which the computer table rests;
a computer monitor bracket operably connected to the support surface;
a second actuator capable of altering the height of a computer monitor support bracket relative to the support surface,wherein the table is configured to enable;
the at least one first actuator to alter the height of the support surface relative to a ground surface; and
the second actuator to alter the height of the computer monitor support bracket relative to the support surface;
and wherein the at least one first actuator and the second actuator are configured to be operated by a programmable logic unit which is configured to;
(a) store a user'"'"'s preferred height for the support surface, computer monitor support bracket and an associated chair;
(b) receive identifier information from a data input device as to the user of the table and compare to the previous height settings of the support surface and computer monitor support bracket;
(c) operate the actuators to adjust the height of;
the support surface relative to a ground surface; and
the height of the computer monitor support bracket relative to the support surface to the preferred height of the user; and
(d) indicate to the user the required height of the chair to the preferred height of the user.

Abstract
The present invention relates to improvements in and relating to computer tables. In particular, computer tables capable of automatically adjusting to accommodate the requirements of an individual user are provided. Preferred embodiments include: automatic alteration of the height of a computer table support surface relative to a ground surface; automatic alteration of the height of a computer monitor support bracket relative to the computer table support surface; and indication to the user the required height adjustment of an associated chair so as to accord to a user'"'"'s preferred height settings when the user enters identifier information into an associated programmable logic unit.
