I assure you that this puerile laptop case will make an impression at your next office meeting.  I’ve even heard that Bush’s cabinet members use these during briefings because the big eyes and bright colors hold the presidents attention longer. 

If you think Sesame Street-like characters could be distracting in the workplace, then you should consider the camouflage factor.  That’s right, the Monster Laptop Sleeve will not only eat your expensive laptop, it will tort criminals looking to steal high end items, they’ll just dismiss it as a child’s pillowcase or something of the like. 

*If you’re not a fan of the cookie monster blue, this handmade novelty comes in three other colors.

The Macbook Air is ultrathin, ultraportable and ultrapointless. Until I can fold my laptop up like a piece of paper and put it in my pocket, it doesn’t really matter if it’s 0.16 or 0.76 inches thick. In fact I don’t really see the point in making it uber thin for portability just so I can carry around a tote bag full of attachments like an external DVD player special Ethernet jack attachment. 
I will admit that Apple likes to raise the bar, and if I were to buy a new laptop today, I’d go for the thinnest most powerful notebook available, but we may need to re-access that which constitutes utility opposed to obsessing over smaller technology.
