Claim 7:
8. A computer peripheral mounting apparatus for connecting a peripheral device to an underlying surface, wherein the underlying surface defines a thickness, the computer peripheral mounting apparatus comprising:
a fixed tubing extending in a longitudinal direction;
a clamp coupled to a first end of the fixed tubing, wherein the clamp comprises a first surface and a second surface, and wherein a distance in the longitudinal direction between the first surface and the second surface is configured to be changed from a first distance to a second distance, less than the first distance, in order to clamp the thickness of the underlying surface between the first surface and the second surface;
an adjustment mechanism positioned at a second end of the fixed tubing, opposite the first end;
a horizontal support coupled to the fixed tubing between the adjustment mechanism and the clamp, and
a shaft positioned within the fixed tubing and coupled between the adjustment mechanism and the clamp,
wherein the adjustment mechanism is configured to rotate around the longitudinal direction relative to the fixed tubing in order to rotate the shaft within the fixed tubing and without the adjustment mechanism nor the shaft translating along the longitudinal direction relative to the fixed tubing,
wherein rotation of the shaft is configured to cause the distance between the first surface and the second surface to change, and
wherein the horizontal support comprises an attachment mechanism for a peripheral device.
