Abstract
Disclosed is a simple portable holder for holding electronic devices such as a laptop computer and a tablet. The holder can secure a laptop in a vertical (closed) position, or an open position. The holder includes a base, at least four posts and straps between the posts for holding the device. The straps between the posts form a substantial U-shaped area for stowage of the device while the device is in a closed position. The posts may have flat or curved profiles including a slanted or curved top portion thereof. The curvature at the top of the posts is used for securing the laptop while in an open position to the device holder. The holder may be placed on the floor to avoid clutter on a work surface, or for the convenience of the user having it near a seat.
