Laptop Stand

The E Head 8:46 AM - 2 March, 2007
Ok i have searched and i know there is many topics on this, but as i am in the UK all the links posted are to shops in USA and the shipping to the UK cost more than the stand and i aint in to that.

So can anyone point me in the direction of a laptop stand on sale in the UK, preferable one with flat feet so that i can slide them under my mixer

Cheers

uberstand, anyone who has it will agree with me, pricey like 150.00 but worth every penny

Thx mate but as i said i dont mind paying that for a stand but its the shipping, had a few quotes from various shops in the states and all were asking $100+ just for P&P

And as the link you sent says 'Hollywood, FL 33021' i ain't even gonna ask them, $150 for a stand i can deal with but $250 including delivery is a bit much.

Anyone know any where in the UK??

Google ain't helping me:(

Looks like they don't sell the uberstand here, it totally shit i have been rocking relitive mode now and when i gig i have to have the laptop at the side of me and it just throws me off haveing to reach to hit the cues and whatever.

Any of you superstar dj's in USA want to pay the shipping? lol

Hey all...i actually just used my Odyssey stand for the first time today at a gig....I must say i was extremely impressed. It had clear view of everything on my mixer, it wasnt too high, wasnt too low. It was very very sturdy..even when typing and searching....I am more than satisfied with the Odyssey L stand. Def recommend it to anyone...And I got it for $60..so that wasnt too bad either.

What is that? Looks like a dish rag holder or something? Doesn't look like it would clear the mixer if it was placed over it. If it works for you, then that's hella savings. lol

Pay close attention to the pics of the two. There are some slight differences.

how sturdy is it?
Dj Noble 8:36 PM - 8 March, 2007
Dang, This blew up.
Here are some answers to comments and questions
1).How sturdy is it? It holds my Gateway 17" screen no problem. Ive also have had friends use an i-book on it as well. A powerbook may be too heavy.
2).Didnt you say you bought this at bestbuy in another thread?
No i did not.
3).What is it! Not sure what to call it besideds a metal slant shelf that you can buy at Home Depot in their Shelving aisle. They have other pieces in white but wouldnt work. Youll see it if they have em.
