The second factor that I want to look at is the comfort and ergonomic factor that Lapworks talked about. After using the stand in several of the different positions offered, I can honestly say that it was slightly more comfortable typing on and also more comfortable looking at whatever I was working on. The added tilt to my MacBook Pro's keyboard felt very nice and made it feel easier to type on. However, if you are used to typing on a flat laptop keyboard, it might take a few days to get used to having the keyboard raised.
