Abstract

Disclosed is a stand for a laptop computer or other data display device, wherein the display portion, or monitor, projects upwardly from the data display container. The user can adjust the position of the portable data display container so as to position the top edge of the monitor at the same height as the user's eyes. This position permits the user to maintain better posture when using the data display device. Additionally, the stand of the present invention may provide a rack for restraining cables attached to the data display device. The stand may also have a swivel so that the monitor can be viewed from whatever angle is convenient for the user. Desirably, the stand also includes a document holder and provides an anchor for a security cable.
