I was wondering if I could mount a Raspberry Pi on the back of the Atrix Lapdock if I would be using it connected to the Pi as a laptop. I asked a simmilar question here and was told the Sugru might work for this. Could someone give me directions on how to do this?

Have you considered zip ties or velcro, both are cheaper than sugru, and may provide a more secure mounting, especially if you get a case for your pi as added protection. You could just mount it to the back of the screen.– Steve RobillardCommented Feb 4, 2015 at 3:51

That seems like it would work, how would I do the cables (I'm going to use a Pi 2 the 1GB ram one)?– user3832611Commented Feb 5, 2015 at 14:43

you could just tie them up neatly with velcro cable ties.– Steve RobillardCommented Feb 5, 2015 at 16:43

What I ment was what cables would I use? This may be a bit off topic, but whatever.– user3832611Commented Feb 5, 2015 at 17:44
