Ok, I apologise if this has been covered several times already, but I did a search and can't really find an answer.

I'm about to take delivery of a 12" PowerBook to replace my dead iBook G4, and looking through the PowerBook picture thread, I can see a lot of machine sitting on stands. The stand that caught my eye looks like transparent plastic, and it seems like a really good way of keeping the PowerBook out of harms way.

So, can somebody recommend me a nice stand for my 12" PB? I'm so looking forward to getting my machine - it may be a bit old, but I love the look. It's the prettiest Mac ever built!

Cheers!

Yeah that looks like it. It's discontinued though, isn't it?

There's also the Bookendz Dock for the Powerbook that looks nice, but I haven't found any pictures of the dock w/ a computer in it so I'm having trouble telling if it's elevated or not.

Anyone out there who has the dock, could you post a picture of your computer in it?
