A light plastic one moves, and you end up steadying it with your other hand every time, which defeats the point. Weight in the base fixes that. Aluminium also keeps the footprint small, because the mass is low down rather than spread out, so it takes less desk than a wide wooden block would.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich finish goes with what?\u003c\/strong\u003e Black disappears on a dark desk and is the safe pick. Silver picks up a laptop or a light desk. Grey sits between the two, and all three keep the walnut on top.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWill it mark the headband?\u003c\/strong\u003e It should not. The rest is curved and the contact area is wide, so the weight spreads out. It is narrow hooks that leave a dent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it have USB ports?\u003c\/strong\u003e Not this one, it is purely a stand, which is why there is no cable to run.
