Innovation and Apple consumers have gone hand-in-hand nowadays. Apple consumers have been conceptualizing, finding, and doing more things that would make them enjoy their Apple contraptions more, that is why this one, although not that surprising, is still a welcome innovation.

An Apple 17" PowerBook user named Steve Cooley is tired of keeping his PowerBook's screen open everytime he works on the couch. According to him, "I (he) have a 17″ powerbook. When IÂ?m on the couch, either reclining or with my feet up on the coffee table, my laptop suddenly turns into an unusable device because in order to make the keyboard egronomically comfortable, the screen wants to fall down and close."

So with that, he came up with a crude but effective way to keep his screen open even if he is typing in a reclined position. He created a device out of wood ans some screws that eliminated his problems with his MacBook. According to the guy, "this is a device to solve the problem of a falling powerbook screen. It's made with 1/4" hardboard layered up, 8/32 bolts, washers, and nuts, and an extra deadbolt faceplate that I cut with my dremel and bent on my vice." Hey, whatever works sounds good to us! Although he didn't mention anything about it damaging or scratching his powerbook, you should bear that in mind if you're gonna try and do something like this.
