Magic Mouse Updates Available for Leopard and Snow Leopard

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

For our users who just purchased the latest iMac, which comes with the super sleek Magic Mouse, and for those of you who may have just purchased the Magic Mouse alone, there are software updates available.  The only information that Apple has provided about the updates is that you should install the software to “take advantage of your Magic Mouse special features.”

Envelope MacBook Sleeve

Wednesday, February 18th, 2009

I’ve been looking for a basic (but not unattractive) laptop cover to protect my MacBook Pro, but everything that I’ve found has a bulky, clunky design.  I finally found exactly what I’ve been looking for in this envelope laptop sleeve by designer Christiane Hoegner.

The envelope has lightweight shock-absorbing high-density foam packaged in colorful fabric.  Simple, elegant and the right size for my MacBook and my bag.

Laptop Decals

Friday, December 5th, 2008

I’ve seen a lot of really beautiful etchings on MacBook Pros throughout the years, but have never been able to to commit to getting one done for my own MacBook.  I found the perfect solution in these lovely laptop decals by Michelle Christina.  The Venus Flytrap Decal is my favorite.  AND they would be a perfect stocking stuffer (yes Santa, I am talking to you).
