BURNED iN posted a review on the Cooler Master NotePal ErgoStand

This has made hulking towers, and even mid-tower PCs, a less attractive option to the mainstream shopper who just wants to hop online and fire off a few Facebook updates, but this isn't without its drawbacks, namely heat and ergonomics.

That's where Cooler Master's NotePal ErgoStand comes into the picture. The ErgoStand is one of many notebook stands promising better cooling and improved ergonomics by raising your notebook's display to eye level, just as if you were staring at a PC monitor. It's also one of the few that can accommodate 17-inch notebooks. How does it fare? You know the drill - click through to find out, homeslice.
