There is provided an apparatus for secure placement on a substantially flat surface. The apparatus includes a case; at least one support piece located on the substantially flat surface for placement of the case, the support piece including at least one piece of a first material; and at least one piece of a second material located within the case. The case rotates about an axis when a facing/bearing of the apparatus is changed. The axis may be either horizontal or vertical. Preferably, at least one of the first material and the second material is a magnet for magnetic attraction between the at least one piece of the first material and the at least one piece of the second material. The apparatus may be a web camera, a set of speakers, a microphone, a light source, or any combination of the aforementioned. It is advantageous for stability that the at least one piece of a second material is located at a fixed position relative to an inner surface of the case whatever the facing/bearing of the apparatus. A corresponding method is also disclosed.
