Abstract: A stand for holding a desktop computer includes a base, a platter mounted for rotation to the base, an arm extending upwardly from the base, and a clip releasably secured to the arm. The computer, having a back with an upstanding lip forming a pocket between the lip and the back, is received on the platter. The clip has a catch that extends downward along the arm, defining a space above the platter between the arm and the clip, and which overlaps the lip of the desktop computer, receives the pocket between the clip and the arm, and clamps the bottom of the computer against the platter.
