Title: Securing laptop onboard
#3
My new MacBook has surprising "stick" ability. Even so, I'm looking at various ways to secure it to the Nav station while underway. I just picked up a couple of small (1.75") suction cups that have a small wire hook attached to the top. These little babies really stick. I'm thinking of making up a small piece of 1/2" webbing with a grommet at each end. Hook the grommets with the suction cups, stretch it across a safe place on the keyboard and suck those babies down. Haven't tried it yet, but it should work in everything but a roll over.
