I made a collapsable box from black CoroPlast and Velcro that I keep
my laptop in when I'm in the field. The "warm zone" inside the box
makes a nice place to temporarily place eyepieces, glasses and such.
In fact, I specifically made it larger than necessary to allow this.
Of course, I've just upgraded (slightly) to a larger laptop now...
