Kensington Laptop Lock

Advantages: Increase in laptop security
Disadvantages: Not the ultimate solution, but that cant be helped.

...can get conversion kits from Kensington themselves, but I am not particularly sure as to how this works. COST ---------- Originally they retail around the £30 mark, however check eBay, as I managed to get a brand new, 100% authentic ( I know this as I have successfully registered mine on their home web page, just in case you loose both keys … more on this later … ) for £11, so at a fraction of the normal cost. Considering the normal cost, I would ...
...peace of mind as my laptop, although now less mobile, was in use when I was at college and needing it for coursework. Although now it plays an important role in reducing any potential theft from my University halls when I accidentally leave my room open. WHAT IT DOES DO -------------------------- Reduces the chances of opportunist thieves simply picking it up and walking away with it when your back is turned or when you aren’t there for a small ...

Houston, we have no problem!

Advantages: Simple, quick way of commuting between desks with a laptop
Disadvantages: Takes a bit of space p on your desk, compared to simple laptop use

This HP docking station is a really useful piece of equipment. For those of you who have not used one before, what ia docking does is connect to all the peripherals on your desk. So you plug it in using its adapter and you can connect a mouse, a keyboard and a printer to it using USBs. You can connect a monitor to, if you want to, which I have. What's the point? Well what it means on a daily basis is that you can perhaps do away with the need for ...
...you could plug different people's HP laptops into it if you wanted to operate a hot desk with it. It costs £105 from PC World, but prices vary a bit depending on where you buy it from. As a daily home/work laptop commuter - I can really recommend this product. It has made my life simpler, my desk more pleasurable to sit at, and saves me a few minutes a day packing and unpacking. ...

Belkins' knee cushion!

Advantages: Relatively lightweight; makes using a laptop more comfortable
Disadvantages: Slightly pricey; bland colours

...and 42 at the bottom. Belkin have tried to make this as ergonomic as possible for laptop users, because the angle my laptop sits at means that I get a clear view of the screen and don't have to lean forward or backward to get a better look. Since I bought it I've found it's so much easier than just having my computer on my lap. It keeps the laptop stable when I'm typing by absorbing any movement and so my legs don't feel the constant keystrokes. ...
...be the colour. I'm sure Belkin could have made these in a more attractive colour than just grey. Although, as I said, the 'pocket' together with the little rubber Belkin tag is green, it's barely noticeable and the overall appearance is somewhat bland. This is a really short review, but that's because there isn't really anything else to say! ...

My new bag

Advantages: Good quality laptop bag
Disadvantages: None yet

Targus Clamshell XL notebook case With the purchase of my new and improved laptop, I needed a new bag so I could carry it around with me. A quick scour around some of the major retailers convinced me that they were all, bar a few, priced around the same price. I knew that I wanted a bag which was smart enough to carry to work and to meetings related to work, but which was equally able to withstand some knocking about. I also knew that I didn't ...
...serviceable colour) and has the Targus logo on the front of the pocket; very discreet, and not something which makes it look tacky. The bag itself is nicely padded, and so offers the laptop some protection without being overly bulky. The one I have is suitable for laptops up to 17", and for anyone interested, the exterior dimensions are 46cm x 38cm x 9cm, with the notebook dimensions being slightly smaller. At the front of the bag is a pocket compartment ...

While Freecom does not officially support Linux, Realtek (who make the DVB chipset) have released a driver that has been modified for easy installation by the Ubuntu community (just search the forum). It works flawlessly with Kaffeine (free media player). ...
