Griffin Elevator Laptop Stand Vs Logitech Notebook Riser

No one is comfortable to be hunched over a laptop with her head at a downward angle. Unfortunately, this is the position that many laptop users find themselves in. Taking the time to investigate the many laptop stands on the market is sure to present an ergonomically appealing solution. A new laptop stand may set you back $25.00 to $50.00, but youll find this money well spent, as the stand will last the life of your computer and beyond. Two such solutions, representing different price points, are discussed here.

Griffin Elevator Laptop Stand

The Griffin Elevator Laptop Stand wins with respect to stability, looks, ergonomics and heat transfer. Made from three discrete pieces that snap together easily, its softly burnished aluminum and clear plastic crossbar look good and hold all sizes of laptops. Ergonomically, your neck will appreciate the relief provided by the 5.5 inche elevation of your laptop. Like the Logitech N110, this is designed to be used with an external keyboard and mouse.

If you worry about your computer overheating, you will appreciate how the bottom of your laptop is exposed to the air for maximum heat transfer. No more will you be sitting with your lap getting warm from a hot laptop threatening to overheat.

Logitech N110 Notebook Riser

The Logitech N110 Notebook Riser looks a bit like a lectern for a laptop. With an off-white plastic base with gently rounded edges, it has a vaguely generic look. It collapses down for easy transport and opens easily. Your laptop rests on two ledges that snap out. While this is stable, it doesnt offer the rubber grips that keep the Griffin Elevator on your desk and your computer secure on the Elevator.

Ergonomically, the Logitech N110 works well. It offers three different angles for holding your laptop. However, you are out of luck if you have a larger laptop because this accommodates PCs and Macbooks up to 15.6 inches wide.

The Bottom Line

The Griffin and Logitech models both are good solutions to the ergonomic difficulties associated with laptop use. The ability to fold up the Logitech is very appealing, but this feature would be more compelling if the device were better made. Not only is the Griffin Elevator more visually appealing, its also more effective at dissipating heat and holding your laptop securely. While the Griffin is slightly more expensive than the plastic Logitech, it is very much worth the extra price.

Computers Are A Part Of Modern Life

Over the years, the image of the computer and those that use them has improved greatly, which shouldn't be much of a surprise. The computer industry has grown quite dramatically over the years, which has pushed people to want to go out and purchase one given all the benefits that it comes with. Regardless of how old or young the people in the home are, having a computer is certain to make things easier, which is always a good thing. It's very easy for you to see why the modern computer is able to impact young people so positively. Being able to access the internet ensures that you have access to almost limitless knowledge, enabling the younger generation to be able to take up interests in things that are not within their immediate vicinity, in addition to it being able to help children complete their homework and certain projects. It's also fair to say that there has been a large number of younger people that have been able to develop their personal s...

Will 2013 SMB Technologies Fall Victim to an Economic Armageddon?

Regardless of your feelings regarding triskaidekaphobia, there is plenty to be nervous about in the coming year ending in the dreaded number 13. It's not just the fear of the number itself or the superstition that surround it, rather most SMB decision makers are fearful of the economic unknown we continue to see in the U.S. economy. The general consensus, post-election, is that the current administration is less than friendly towards the needs of the average small and mid-sized business which ironically is considered to be the largest driver of the U.S. economy. Let me be clear, my intention is not to debate the merits or shortcomings of the government's economic policy rather I mention it as one of the factors in trying to predict what new technologies will be major players in the New Year. Even though the economic outlook for growth is less than rosy, the SMB community will still be spending on technology. To that end, I turn to my go-to expert of al...

Don't Be Scared by XP Internet Security Pro 2013 Scareware

Cyber criminals are found creating various forms of scams to frighten computer users into purchasing fake antivirus software with a seemingly genuine security warning, which is one of the fastest-growing types of Internet fraud today. When users choose to buy this program, they will find that it will either do nothing or it could compromise their computers by installing malicious software onto their system. To avoid falling victims to this type of scam, users should know this: few legitimate Internet security companies use ads to tell you about a virus on your computer. XP Internet Security Pro 2013 is such an instance. It is a fresh rogue program that was designed by inventors of Vista Security Plus 2013 and Win 7 Internet Security Pro 2013. It tries to frighten you into purchasing fake security software with a fake security warning. The inventors of this fake security program uses networks of compromised computers under their control-to push out the fake sof...
