Is it possible to run a Lenovo T420 when it is completely closed?
**This is first of several upcoming questions. Some will be very easy. Stay tuned.
Lenovo T420 - Win 7
I have external mouse/keyboard/monitor. I also have a USB hub
I would like to keep computer under my desk with the lid closed (to save space and to keep it in good condition). Thus, it will function like a desktop. Is this possible?

There's a very simple alternative. I have one of those vintage metal stacking file stands. So I could just dedicate the top for the computer, then leave the lid open just enough (an inch?) to keep everything running. But that's not quite as elegant :)

Thank you, John. That's a very good point about the HD. I think leaving it open an inch works in the short term. More questions forthcoming.
@RaiderNationDelegate - Thank you for your update and I was happy to help.
