Apparatus for secure placement on a flat surface and a method thereof

A method for secure placement of a computer peripheral apparatus on a substantially flat surface, including:

• positioning at least one support piece on the substantially flat surface, the support piece including at least one piece of a first material;
• and
• placing a case of the apparatus on the at least one support piece, the case including at least one piece of a second material and with the case being configured to allow the second material movement relative to the case;
• wherein the case rotates about an axis when a facing/bearing of the apparatus is changed and wherein at least one of the first material and the second material is a magnet for magnetic attraction between the at least one piece of the first material and the at least one piece of the second material.

A computer peripheral apparatus for secure placement on a substantially flat surface, including:

• a case;
• at least one support piece located on the substantially flat surface for placement of the case, the support piece including at least one piece of a first material;
• and at least one piece of a second material located within the case;
• wherein the case rotates about an axis when a facing/bearing of the apparatus is changed, wherein the second material maintains a position within the case that is closest to the support piece when a facing/bearing of the apparatus is changed and wherein at least one of the first material and the second material is a magnet for magnetic attraction between the at least one piece of the first material and the at least one piece of the second material.
