Tech Tool: Collapsible laptop stand

Targus Ergonomic X-Stand for NotebooksEvery so often, I feature different types of tech tools that I've found handy or interesting. Today I'm featuring a laptop accessory that I almost can't do without, the Targus Ergonomic X Stand for Notebook. (See their site for other views.)

This is a godsend, especially for road warriors as well as for those using laptops in offices or homes. Why do I like this tool so much?

  • Raises the notebook to a nice ergonomic height for hand placement
  • Allows air to move beneath to help keep the notebook's base cool
  • Can be easily adjusted to fit a wide variety of laptops, no matter the size
  • Sturdy little frame
  • Has protective covers to prevent marring furniture
  • Perfect for travel as it is only 5.6 oz and folds down compactly to 6.4? x 1.6? x 1.5?, which easily fits in laptop cases and even purses

I've had mine since Spring 2006 and think it's an excellent tool at a good price.

Cost: Approximately US$30. I bought it off-the-shelf at a local Target store. It is also available from a number of online retailers.
