Bellagio-Italia CD / DVD Storage Album

Author Thomas | 24.02.2009 | Category Accessories, Electronics

The Bellagio-Italia CD / DVD Storage Binder by HandStands is a great tool for freeing up space in your entertainment center.  We have about 6-7 of these, and they’re fantastic.  Our shelves look so much better having swapped out all of our DVD cases and placing the DVDs into the binder.

HandStands Bellagio Italia CD / DVD Storage Binder

Since we really don’t use the DVD menu cards, we put in only the DVDs even though the binders can accommodate the menu cards.  We felt it was a waste of space to have those in there.

Video Demo from LLG

The binder is “3-ring” and holds 48 discs.  Extra pages can be ordered if you want to store more discs in a single album.  We’ve categorized our DVD binders into Kid Movies, Animated Movies, Adventure Movies, etc.  There’s a little bracket on the spine that lets you write what the binder holds.

The albums help protect the DVDs even better than the DVD cases (in our case) because our DVD cases tended to get tossed on the floor and stepped on by the kids.  The binders are sturdy, and stand up just fine on their own.

Laptop Stand and USB Hub

Author Thomas | 15.09.2008 | Category Accessories, Electronics

This notebook stand does a great job holding a notebook and keeping it steady.  The multi-adjustable height elevates the laptop screen high enough to help reduce tension in the shoulders, back and neck.  The front “lip” holds the laptop in place and prevents the laptop from flipping or falling over.

Most notebook stands don’t have a protective measure designed to keep the laptop from falling to the side, front or back.  This stand does.  The stand has no fans to keep your laptop cool, but in our tests, because the laptop is elevated fairly high, and because of the curvature of the stand, the stand helps keep the laptop cool.

An external keyboard is a must with this stand.  Because the stand has a USB hub, a computer mouse, keyboard, and other low-power accessories can be connected to the hub and thus to the notebook.
