STYLETHREAD -- LET'S TALK SHOP!

I plug mine in behind the couch, and run the power cord under the couch, and then I slip my computer under there when I'm not using it. That way I can use it from the couch and still have it on the charger, but can use it anywhere on the first floor and know I have an out of the way place to charge it when it needs it.

I have a second power cord upstairs in the den so I can move about the second floor in the same way.

 Suasoria - I know! The five mintues each day that I'm not on my laptop...

 

greendiamond -  that is the kind of nifty I'm looking for. I live in a very safe neighborhood, but I still don't like to leave expensive and sensitive electronics sitting out--visible from windows. So you're idea does multi-duty: allows you to clean up, protect the laptop, keep the cords hidden but still accessible, and hide from people who wish to commit unsavory deeds!

My friend just had his laptop stolen from his house for, I think, the second or third time. I'm pretty sure it was visible through one of the windows.
