A protective holder for a portable electronic device, such as a personal computer, wireless telephone or communicator, hand-held game or the like, in the form of a lidless enclosure having a bottom member, a front wall, a rear wall and two side walls, the four walls extending upwardly from bottom member as a one-piece unitary structure, the top edges of the front wall, rear wall and two side walls extending inwardly to form a continuous retaining flange. The protective holder is constructed from a water-resistant, flexible and resilient material such that the enclosure fits snugly about the electronic device in order to provide protection from impact shock, spillage, and other hazards. The exterior surfaces of the front wall and rear wall are provided with a plurality of vertically extending ribs which join a plurality of bottom ribs extending across the bottom member in a continuous manner. The protective holder is manufactured to have particular dimensions to conform to a specific model and/or type of electronic device and is provided with various openings corresponding to the electronic connections equipped on the electronic device. As the protective holder is completely open across the top, the electronic device retained therein can be used without having to remove the holder therefrom. In addition, the holder can remain secured to the electronic device for storage. The bottom member of the holder is configured with rear foot members and preferably smaller front foot members such the holder slopes downwardly toward the front, thereby providing an ergonomically correct angle of the device retained therein. The incorporation of the foot members provides a high coefficient of friction to the bottom member, thereby creating a greater gripping ability to reduce slipping and sliding of the protective holder on the work surface.
