The better-designed ones work fine. The support extends beyond the
back of the laptop. For example:

I have three laptops but I still want a keyboard for my iPad.

The reason is that all the guts (cpu, memory, interfaces, BATTERY...), and therefore the weight, is in the screen portion, so when you prop it in your lap (like on a plane, train, or bus, etc.), it keeps trying to topple over.
