Laptop Stands for Couch Potatos?

ylsul asks: "Like many of you, I find myself working from home a lot, and I usually end up slouched on my couch with my laptop. Have any of you out there found the 'perfect' way to hack and slack at the same time? (maybe something like this?)"

    I was thinking that if I had a treadmill (or some other exxercise machine), I would want to set it up so that I could mount a laptop such that I could use it while exercising.

  2. Best home slacker set up I have ever seen. by Neck_of_the_Woods · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Guy had his computer hooked up to his projector that was sitting on top of his coffee table. When he wanted to do some home coding he just pulled out his wireless keyboard/mouse and flipped on his projector. It displayed on the wall which was just to the right of his tv in the corner. When he was done he just put the mouse and keyboard under the coffee table on a shelf built into the table and flipped off the projector. He had a floor power outlet and wireless which was pretty slick and helped.

    As far as what where he put the mouse and keyboard, he had keyboard right on his lap and would just toss down one of his computer books for the mouse. The computer was just a little shuttle space walker that would sit under the table as well. It worked out rather nicely. I have sence then figured the next time I moved I would try settin someting like this up as well.

    -1 offtopic I guess but still a sweet setup.
