Booq Boa 3L Bag

Tuesday, June 16th, 2009

boa-3l

Boa 3 is the laptop backpack of choice for the demanding, frequently-traveling creative professional. While its exterior is slick and understated, its blood-red interior is where this backpack outperforms.

Open-top pockets for small items you use frequently, large zippered pockets and full-size compartments, magnetic pockets that open and close quietly, and fine-mesh pockets, ready to hug any item you slide into them.
An ergonomically superior shoulder strap design and back padding has resulted in increased comfort and load-distribution.
Boa 3 has been crafted from the highest quality 1680D ballistic nylons with waterproof coating and is equipped with extremely durable, oversized YKK exterior zippers.

An entirely separate laptop compartment for your 15 or 17-inch MacBook Pro is easily accessed via a zipper that runs along the back edge.
Beyond that: Convenient side pockets, one with headphone pass-through, a sternum strap, removable seatbelt nylon waist strap, and a padded ballistic-nylon carrying handle.

The full-featured Boa 3 leaves very few things, if any, to be desired. Impeccable construction, incredible ease of use, solid laptop protection. Unsurpassed comfort. Intelligently placed accessory pockets and compartments. Professional, understated styling. Combined, it’s what makes the Boa 3 the ultimate backpack.

Pimp Out Your Macbook

Sunday, March 8th, 2009

10-logo Apple’s MacBook has been the best laptop for the money sold for a while now. It packs in spectacular power and some of the most advanced features available. That said, there’s always room to accessorize. Us being longtime Mac users and MacBook owners, we’ve put together our top 10 products to help you pimp your MacBook.
 
 
 


 
owc8500ddr3s2gbpair400 OWC 4GB RAM Upgrade
 
Adding RAM to your MacBook isn’t the sexiest upgrade you can perform, but it will do more for your system than anything else on this list. Not only will Mac OS X just generally run faster overall, but you’ll also be able run more applications at once and just do things way quicker than you could ever do with Apple’s stock 2GB configuration.
 
The best deal we found (from a reliable store) for RAM was from Other World Computing. We picked up the maximum 4GB RAM upgrade to truly pimp our MacBook. We highly recommend OWC.

dell-2407wfp-display DELL ULTRASHARP 2408WFP
 
The quickest way for you to increase productivity is to add a second computer monitor. As hard as it is for us Apple fanboys to recommend it, the Dell UltraSharp 2408WFP 24-inch LCD is the top choice available for the MacBook’s WUXGA resolution (1920×1200). Not only is the 2408WFP cheaper than the 24-inch Apple Cinema Display, it also out performs it in almost every way. The 2408WFP has great color and contrast and a plethora of video connections that even allow for picture-in-picture TV watching right beside your spreadsheets.
 
Also, don’t forget the Mini-DVI to DVI adapter from Apple.

microsoft-windows-xp-oem Microsoft Windows XP Professional With SP3 (OEM)
 
Since you’ll (hopefully) be spending most of your day running OS X, there’s no need to drop 300 bucks on Windows XP. The best deal we have found was this OEM version of Microsoft Windows XP Professional With SP3 from NewEgg. It’s the same exact software, only without the big box (that you don’t need).

31j04xg4psl_ss500_ Logitech S220 2.1 Speaker System
 
The Logitech S-220 Speaker System contains several upgrades to its predecessor, the S-200 Speaker System. Unlike the S-200, the new S-220 encompasses increased usability with a newly styled control base to manage improved acoustics, volume and VoIP connectivity. Bass tuning by the end user is often permanent once a setting is established. With the end-user experience at the forefront of Logitech’s design strategy to minimize desk clutter the S-220 bass control is located directly on the subwoofer. This allows the end user to tune the speaker system with no concerns for any accidental control adjustments. Finally, the newly designed S-220 advantages improved acoustics for a smoother, rich experience to enjoy music, VoIP discussions or playing video games.
 
We purchased this desktop sound system a few months back and love it. Highly recommended. Plus, it comes at a cheap price.
