Did you know that the weight of the head on the spine is increased by 10lbs for every inch of forward head posture? https://www.kickstarter.

By design, laptop screens are attached to the keyboard, forcing you to compromise your posture. This has resulted in a common problem referred to as the “laptop hunch”, which causes back, shoulder, and neck soreness or pain. Veego Stand aims to solve this problem with a simple, effective and design-driven solution.

Sure laptop stands already exist, but Veego seems like definite improvment on what's already available. The Veego Stand is only 3.9 mm thin, the equivalent of 2 nickels stacked. At 83 grams light (2.9 oz), it weighs as much as a small box of paper clips. And because it stays attached to your laptop, it's super easy to take with you everywhere your laptop goes. This means no carting around a bulky plastic stand, no forgetting your stand at home and no more neck, back and shoulder pain.
