More than 100 teachers and Campus Instructional Technologists (CITs)
have purchased the Laptop Desk to use with laptops in the classrooms,
offering a more comfortable and ergonomic computing experience."The
Laptop Desk helps our teachers and students have the correct posture
to reduce the typical computer-use-related strain on their necks,
backs and eyes."
"We use it as a desktop stand to elevate the laptop's screen
closer to the eyes, and to incline the keyboard to a better position
for typing. It keeps our students and teachers from straining to
see things at the bottom of the screen, and lets them type naturally
with arms resting by their sides."

"We are very happy with the Laptop Desks we use in our training
environment. The one hundred or so instructors who attend network
training here each year no longer have to balance their expensive
laptops awkwardly on their laps to avoid crashes to the floor as
they move about troubleshooting configurations on routers and switches
in our equipment racks. The Laptop Desk anchors their laptops on
their legs as they use rolling chairs around the equipment. "
"The Laptop Desk also helps me work more comfortably while
in bed or at my desk. It has replaced the pillow I once used to
avoid a burned lap, which was also the culprit in making my laptop
overheat by blocking the airflow to the processor. Before I had
the Laptop Desk, the inside of my wrists would get sore from the
unnatural typing angle of my laptop set flat on a desk. With my
laptop now propped up on the Laptop Desk, I can see the screen more
clearly and relieve the tension on the inside of my wrists."

"The Laptop Desk spans the entire lap so you can relax your
knees naturally instead of squeezing them together to hold a laptop.
This helps users have the correct posture to minimize strain on
the shoulders, neck, back and arms."
"When I make presentations at other corporations I show the
Laptop Desk when I discuss correct laptop setup."

"Teleworking is about employees working from home or other
mobile or virtual locations. We promote the benefits of teleworking
(lower overhead, increased worker productivity, less traffic congestion,
etc.) to Corporate America and the government, so I am constantly
mobile. Whether at home, in my car, or in a hotel, the Laptop Desk
is one of life's little pleasures.""The Laptop Desk even
makes it more comfortable to work at my desk because I can angle
the keyboard.""My laptop doesn't overheat anymore, because
the Laptop Desk's ventilation channels cool it. I was at an airport
recently, and actually saw a man sitting with his legs apart, trying
to balance his laptop between them. He said it was to keep his laptop
from getting too hot."

"I mainly use my Tablet PC without the detachable keyboard,
more like a pad of paper with a pen. When I fold the Laptop Desk
over in incline mode, it raises my Tablet's screen and improves
its visibility and writing angle when I have it on my lap.""My
legs don't get hot, and my Tablet stays put because of the gripping
surfaces on the Laptop Desk."

"Proving that a truly effective product doesn't require a lot
of fancy switches, knobs and buttons, LapWorks has crafted a durable,
agile and downright affordable mobile peripheral. The Laptop Desk
travels well, does everything they say it will and won't require
a second mortgage to purchase."
"The Laptop Desk is simple, but effective. It has two modes
of operation, fully extended for mobile use and folded over for
stationary work at a desk. Both are equally useful configurations,
allowing you to adapt to changing work environments easily.""The
Laptop Desk is equally suited to a PDA and external keyboard. My
Targus StowAway keyboard and Jornada 565 are a great portable pair,
but when dropped on my lap, there is enough flex in the keyboard
to make some keys stick when in the wrong position. The Laptop Desk
stabilizes it for power typing."For more, see Furo's product
