Macbook Stand

[Randy B. Singer]

Many folks like to use their Macbook as a desktop computer at the office or at home. They plug in a bigger monitor, a keyboard, a mouse, etc., and it’s a great desktop.

You may have seen some fancy Macbook stands/holders on the Web that allow you to stand up your Macbook on edge while using it as a desktop, to free up more desk space. Here is a nice example:

I'd like to point out a stand that is dirt cheap, but which does the same job and looks fantastic while doing it:

thanks for that - I've been looking for something to stand my macbook on but don't want to pay the prices for some of the ones available, and that's if they'll actually fit an old white macbook.
