Where can I find a good book holder for decent sized programming books?
- by Joel Marcey
Suppose you have a book on a programming language and are trying to learn the language. You want to write the code that is given in the book in so you can learn by example while you read. But you hate holding the book on your lap and trying to type at the same time. I find that extremely uncomfortable.
Someone recommended that I try using a music stand, but I figured the placement of that would be problematic since I would have to turn my head too much.
Does anyone know of a good book holder that they can recommend that can sit next to your monitor so you can look at it while you type? Specifically, I am looking for one that can handle about a 600 page paperback book.
