Just my 2p, but what's with this idea of taking a lovely lightweight
portable device, and screwing it to a fixed position? The e*** is at
it's very best when used with a wire**** L*N so you can have it
available in every room in the house - works out cheaper and a fair
bit easier than sticking a touchscreen flat panel to the wall in
every room...

And if think a wire**** L*N is expensive, don't worry - it's one of
the better purchases you can make in terms of WAF... Transformed our
laptop...

Scenario: Sat in front of TV, wife watching, husband on laptop.
Wife: "ooh, what was the soundtrack to that programme we just
watched?"
Me: (Clicks on Amazon) "What you mean this one?" (burst of sound
from
laptop)
Wife: "Yes! Oh I'd love that on CD..."
Me: (Click) "Should turn up on Thursday."
Wife: "Wow, you're amazing. Why don't we spend the rest of our
savings on HA?"

The last sentence didn't actually happen, but I'm getting real close
I'm sure. ;-)
