Mine is no longer on a Wal-Mart desk...we donated that to our daughter when our house got too full.  We recently re-inherited my great-grandparents' player piano from a cousin that chose to use his house-space for his huge TV, leather couch, gaming tables, etc.  We hauled the antique piano and 100+ player scrolls and an antique sewing machine home...and found room for them in our 1200 square foot house.

So my computer currently sits on the floor by "my chair" in the living room, the monitor and speakers are on an end table, and the keyboard is on my lap.  My mouse is on a book, like Silver Orchid's...but not Green Eggs and Ham!   :-) :-) :-)  :-)  

It's all good.  I much prefer owning the things my great-grandparents left over Wal-Mart stuff!

The desktop is on a really great second hand desk I found, but my laptop and work's--they get the coffee table treatment :-)

For a long time I used to have it on the dashboard of my '86 Buick but I've since upgraded to a custom cup holder mount in my new Tacoma. Still have to jockey for parking near Starbucks so I can get online though.  :whistling:

I wish I could get something like that for my sofa.  I would have switched to a laptop years ago.

I have a laptop.  It sits on my lap.  When I am not using it, it is on a side table.

And why haven't you shared this little piece of ingenuity with Bobo the Hobo yet?  :-)
