LED for notebook
I have been using a 15" Asus which does not have a backlit keyboard.
Any recommendation for a USB powered light-not too bulky, lighweight?

I use this Kensington:

Very bright, with 2 different settings. I like it over most others because its flexible arm is nice and long.

What model of Asus do you have? Some have backlit keyboard available for as little as $20.

The 3 LED unit came today in 16 days and works fine. The whole assembly is about 12" long. Total cost was about $1.50 including S&H. If interested from this seller do a search on ebay.com for "USB 3 LED flexibly Metal lamp light for laptop #8004" or whatever. There are plenty of LED from mucho sellers. Good luck.
