Got one of these on Wednesday. Packs down really nicely and fits both my 13" MacBook and my colleagues 15" thing well. Helps to prop the laptop up for slightly prolonged use, raising the screen to a more comfortable level and angling the keyboard for more comfort. Definitely not a replacement for proper set up, but a great portable bit of kit.

I love the old acrylic Griffin ICurve, great for lifting laptops to a working height but not so transportable as the did not collapse, but are light.

I used to use one of those.

Ended up getting a hengedock instead as I was fed up of plugging stuff in all the time

We sooooo need those at work.
Offshore we hardly ever get adjustable chairs, and as we use laptops we can adjust monitor height either.

They are very good and portable, but they are heavy, so not practical if you want to fly with it.

A Coca-Cola bottle opener that takes two goes to open their own bottles... and some Vanilla Coke that doesn't taste the way I remember it. Think I'm giving it away :? :(

Christ, now I've got an urge to right these shopping wrongs by buying things I don't really need :oops:

Oh! Some Turtles t-shirts were 8-)

A refurb BR player and the COPS (cartoon) collection. Funny on many levels! Oh, and a Spider-Man T-shirt similar to the design from the recent film :)
