Your laptop is tough, but like the rest of us, it appreciates a little comfort. This 11-1/2" x 15" neoprene zippered case/sleeve is uber flexible, soft and padded to protect your investment. Big enough to fit a laptop that’s 10-1/2" x 14", or maybe a smidge larger. In white, with a tasteful black border and zipper on (3) sides.

You’re going to need a new card reader at some point, and here’s your chance to get a great one for way less than you’d pay at a Large Box Retailer. Ours is from Unitek. It’s a USB 3.0 Type-C, (3)-port hub and Micro SD/SD card reader has a transfer rate up to 5 GBS and is compatible with USB 2.0/1.1, with a dual drive that allows for reading (2) different cards simultaneously. Plug and play, no driver installation needed. Has a new rounded design and measures 4-1/2" x 1-1/8" dia.

From Alxum®, this USB 3.0, 3-port hub has a multi-in-one card reader with data transfer speed up to 5Gbps. Can read pretty much any type of memory card such as Micro SD, SD, SDHC, SDXC(supports up to 2TB), and CF. Plug and play with Windows, Mac OS and Linux. Turns your PC, laptop or any device that accepts USB into a dynamo. Includes Card Reader, data cable, power adapter and user manual. Sweet item!

We know you can read that headline many ways, but all we’re saying is that this nice-quality (3)-outlet (grounded), (2)-USB surge-protecting power strip comes in a lovely shade of dark pink, more like a Fuchsia. The 2-foot-long heavy-duty cord is white with red flecks (think candy cane) and has a grounded (3)-prong plug. Rated for 15 Amps/1875 Watts and 450 joules. From Bright-Way®.

Need some juice? How about a (4)-pack of lithium-ion polymer (LiPo) batteries with a charger than can re-charge all (4) at once? Yeah, we thought you’d like that. Batteries are 3.7V 600mAH, each measuring 1.1/2" x 1" x 1/4", with a charger that’s about 1-1/2" square by 1/2”. This little package is compact and powerful, like Joe Pesci, or Reese Witherspoon.

Even the non-gamers among us found this Up-Tech gaming headset super comfy, and bossman Pat’s son, who’s a tough critic and avid gamer, gave it 4 out of 5 stars. Works with all gaming systems and PCs. The headset is wired, with built-in mic, inline mic control and noise-isolating earpads. Uses 1/8" standard jacks, has a PC adapter and adjustable headband. Heck, we might just wear this rig around the house to see if we get left alone. That’s sort of a game, ain’t it?

You’ve got power and data needs, and we’ve got Micro USB cable multi-packs. See how well this all works out? You pick: the USB to Micro USB (5)-pack white with (3) at 3” long and (2) at 7” long, all white and flexible cords, good for charging and transferring data; or the premium Unitek USB to micro USB in black (6)-pack for syncing and charging, durable and reliable, compact and heat-resistant.

This mouse is your travel partner, a fashionable shiny white-plastic optical mouse with red, blue or black accents—and we’ll pick because you have a flight to catch. Mouse sides, wheel and top prismatic spot morph through rainbow-color-changing light when in use and has left, right and wheel buttons. Not traveling much these days? It’s still perfect for your laptop. Has a USB plug on a 56” cord and measures 3-1/2” long x 2” wide x 1-1/2” high at its highest.

Our 5-foot, 18 gauge, black computer power cord is grounded, with a 3-prong IEC end. IEC cords are used to connect a lot of electronic equipment, including (yes) computers, but also musical instrument amplifiers, professional audio equipment and virtually all professional video gear. It’s never a bad idea to have an extra one or two of them at the ready.

We were told we carry our stress in our neck and shoulders, and we blamed it on our phone until we got this headset with flexible boom mic from Merkury Innovations®. It’s like those headsets that operators wear but nowhere near as dorky-looking. These are like the padded headphones the cool kids wear, with an easily bendable mic that you position. Mic is noise-reducing, too, so you’ll sound better than you ever have. Compatible with Macs and PCs, is equipped with a TRRS 3.5mm (1/8") audio output plug. Plug and play. Your neck says thanks.
