U.S. Patent Application Publication No.: US 2009/0086424
Filed: Oct. 1, 2007
Published: Apr. 2, 2009
Inventor: Raymon Jette

Raymon Jette envisioned a laptop that would help the user maintain "an ergonomically correct sitting position during use thereby eliminating neck, shoulder, back and eye strain". His design included a main body, a middle "lectern" layer, and screen. Not only would the lectern section allow you to adjust the screen's position and viewing angle, it could also serve as a handy book stand. He submitted his design to the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in 2007, but has not been granted a patent.
