- If using the table, use it at a slight angle so you can push it a bit farther away without the kickstand falling off the back
I did turn it a bit on the table but it makes typing awkward. When I put a magazine under it really helped.
Putting it on my lap sucks too because it's not perfectly flat and sometimes the keyboard gets unhinged. Sadly I probably have to edit three years to get a replacement and will get a real laptop then.
