You guys keep forgetting we are talking about a photographer here. It takes a crow bar or something with an awful lot of teeth to pry their heads away from the viewfinder!

Hey Sideways..... I posted this exact same question on Wetpixel a while back, and a whole lotta photogs weighed in with some great advice:
Attaching your computer to your camera, Does anyone do this?

Hahaha..... yeah, we're pretty bad.:cool2: The bungee band is pretty cool, it might give me that extra security if I keep it on my wrist. I do appreciate the feedback all!!

It is your computer, attach it where ever you want. I'd just suggest attaching it to your person and not something that you can drop.
I know that the possibility of you dropping your camera is slim, but I have seen it happen.
You camera can survive DCS w/o issue, you not so much.

That'll work as far as having the ease of use of bungee, but it provides no back-up; if one pin pops out, both bungees come loose and you loose the computer.
If the "body" of the computer at the "pin" sites is thick enough, it may be possible to drill up the holes that the pins fit into. That way, instead of using the pins, you can thread thin bungee through those holes. Make one individual bungee loop for each side and you have a bungee mount for pennies
For an idea of how this would work, check out page 8 of the manual for the Liquivision Xen bottom timer.
Please note this advice is worth exactly what you paid for it, and I take no responsibility if you bugger up you computer by drilling holes in it.
