The End of 'Hot Legs' - LapWorks' Laptop Desk Goodyear AZ

Got a portable computer that scorches your legs, making you think "cooktop," not "laptop"? Then you might be interested in the $30 LapWorks Laptop Desk 2.0, a sturdy black 23-ounce polycarbonate clamshell that when folded is only 11 x 10.5 x .75 inches. It's also produced by LapWorks in white for MacAlly as the ICEPad. Folded, the Laptop Desk neatly shares the laptop compartment in my carrying case--designed for laptops thicker than my PowerBook's one inch.

The End of 'Hot Legs' - LapWorks' Laptop Desk

Got a portable computer that scorches your legs, making you think "cooktop," not "laptop"?

Opened, the Laptop Desk forms a solid 20.5 x 11-inch surface that accommodates the biggest laptop plus a pen, notepad or cell phone on either side. (Minor quibble #1: I'd like a molded tray to keep my pen from rolling off.) The rubberized coating on its top very effectively keeps the laptop from slip-slidin' away, and the same material on the bottom keeps the whole works firmly planted on even the slickest fabric. Deep grooves molded into the surface both insulate you from the laptop and purport to keep it 15 to 20 percent cooler.
