Satechi announces Aluminum Monitor Stand for MacBook, iMac, and more

For as long as I've used computers, I've always owned desktops. Sure, I've also leveraged laptops when on the go, but I had the reliable tower at home waiting for me too. Unfortunately, not everyone has the luxury of owning two computers. Some folks must leverage a laptop as a desktop.

There are many ways to create a solid desktop experience using a laptop, such as a monitor with a docking station. Of course, a secondary display and dock costs money. The most cost-effective option is a simple monitor stand that can raise your laptop, making its display more appropriate for on-desk viewing. Today, Satechi announces its unimaginatively named Aluminum Monitor Stand, which is absolutely perfect for Apple's MacBook, but iMac owners should take a look too.

"The Aluminum Monitor Stand raises larger computer monitors (up to 31 lbs) or laptops for a more comfortable viewing angle that reduces eye and neck strain by promoting good posture. The slim, modern monitor stand also improves ventilation and creates free workspace, by adding an additional platform to organize a tablet, laptop, charging station, smartphone, office supplies, printers and more", says Satechi.

Not only does it raise your display, but it allows you to store your mouse, keyboard, or potentially both, inside of it. If you are tight on desk space, this solution can alleviate that a bit.

True, a monitor stand is not new, nor ground-breaking, but Satechi's product looks attractive and is reasonably priced. The $39 accessory is available in Space Gray, Gold and Silver -- the same as the newest MacBook. While it is clearly designed for that machine, it can, of course, be used with any laptop, all-in-one computer, or monitor that is 31 pounds or below.

If you are interested in purchasing, it is available on Amazon here.
