Lap Desks

What's the difference between lap desks and computer stands?

Your laptop is your mobile gateway to working just about anywhere. You can work untethered with a solid lap desk. An alternative to a computer stand, which sits on a desk, a lap desk is exactly as it sounds - a desk made to fit on your lap. Prop up your laptop at an ideal angle with a tilted laptop stand, and work while standing using a computer stand that is raised at an ideal height for you. Your system can stay cool as you compute with a perforated, breathable top surface, and your lap can feel more comfortable with a lap desk that has a padded base. Some lap desks provide a built-in phone dock, mouse pad, lamp and cup holder, so business can move forward as usual while you're on the train, in an airport or at home.

What are some of the best laptop accessories to have?

Along with a lap desk, you may want to keep a few other helpful accessories in your remote-work toolkit. Business travel can be a breeze with a padded laptop backpack or briefcase with room for your computer, files, pens, phone and other items. Extra chargers and power adapters can help keep your devices at the ready. When you're back at the office, connect your laptop to a PC, multiple monitors, a mouse and an external keyboard when you choose a laptop docking station that has the ports you need to make connections easier.
