What are some stands worth considering?

notso swift said:the ones that clamp the fork and rest on the bb are the most stable.
But mine clamps the seat post (regardles of it being carbon) as i find it more useful. For instance i can use it to true wheel on the bike, i glue base layer on my rims. It does shake around more when you are running through the big gears but since i could only have one...
Mine bolts on to a bench, so it is not portable and also not good for getting high, but it is better than nothing
