    Abstract: A workstation configured to provide laptop storage and permit docking of the laptop broadly includes a desk and a modesty panel attached to the desk. The modesty panel includes a chassis and a panel door swingably attached to the chassis into and out of a closed position where the chassis and panel door define an enclosed space. The chassis includes power and data terminals for providing electrical power and data access to the laptop. The chassis further includes a removable partition with containers for holding the laptop and peripherals within the chassis. With the panel door closed, the chassis and panel door cooperatively define a passage that is configured to receive a transmission cable for interconnecting terminals and the laptop. The modesty panel is configured to securely store the laptop in the enclosed space by restricting removal of the laptop when the panel door is closed.
