More and more companies are replacing desktops with laptops - but it means these users are sacrificing good posture and their health for mobility and ease of use.The Laptop Stand Up gives mobile computing professionals a new perspective - transforming their laptops into virtual flat-screen monitors while reducing neck, back, and wrist strain with an external keyboard and mouse.Most people use their laptops flat on the desk, meaning they have to crane their neck down to see the screen and curve wrists unnaturally to fit on the laptop keyboard. By raising the laptop into a vertical position, this ergonomic laptop stand provides several benefits- Improve your ergonomics. The Stand Up raises the laptop so that the top of the screen is at eye level - thus keeping the user's head level. An external keyboard and mouse keep wrists relaxed and at a natural angle - especially if they also have ergonomic designs.- Save desk space. With a footprint of only 73 square inches, you can reclaim your workspace. That's even less room than most flat-screen monitors- Turn heads with great design. Not only is the Stand Up functional, it also looks great. You can choose from a variety of finishes to match your laptop design - it comes in two silver finishes polished and anodized and one black one.- Present effectively. By raising the laptop screen, users can display a presentation, a photo slide show, or even a movie played on the laptop's DVD drive to a small group of people.- Take it with you. Because the Stand Up is easily disassembled, it can be taken along with you - whether its across the country or just to a nearby conference room.- Save money. The Stand Up solution costs a lot less than a traditional external monitor set-up. Also consider the potential savings in workers compensation claims - especially for employees who have to work at their laptops full-time.- Keep your laptop cool. When vertical, air circulates freely around your laptop, improving Performance and extending the life of your laptop from less frequent use of the internal fan.The Laptop Stand Up is manufactured, distributed, and retailed by Legenda Design, LLC.
