Multifunction portable table attachment for laptop computers

Abstract

A multifunction portable table attachment for a laptop computer comprised of a detachable table made of a lightweight hard material such as aluminum, chrome or titanium and further comprising symmetrically constructed orifices on the portable table base for cup holders, mouse pad, and various gadgets when the laptop is resting on the lap of the user. The symmetric design of the portable table allows it to be used on either side of the laptop computer and keeps the table body above the laptop surface level to prevent blocking the connectors and other accessory plugs on the sides of the laptop body. The customized joints of the portable table allows it to be used with laptops of any width or height and facilitates folding up of the portable table while still attached to the laptop and in this manner can be stored away in a laptop or other bag taking up minimal space.
