For Mac lovers, this is a good gift. If you own one, gift yourself if you don’t gift that friend who does. It is the carbon fiber leather cushion for a MacBook 13″ or a MacBook 15″ Pro. The case is triple layer carbon wrapped and features a removable plexiglass window to display the Apple logo. It comes in two pieces and clips onto the bottom and top of the laptop, it takes about 5 seconds to install. The design is lightweight so that it doesn’t add much bulk or weight to your laptop and features cutouts that give you access to all of your ports and buttons.

It's safe to say we've hit the third generation of netbooks. They're nice now. The HP Mini 5105 strikes at Asus Eee Seashell's fancily contoured plastic with aluminum and magnesium. Oh yeah, and 95-percent chiclet keyboard that feels fantastic. The weird, chewy line between netbook and notebook gets blurrier with a standard 7200RPM hard drive that has an accelerometer in it for sudden motion protection, like on real laptops. Though that faster hard drive means you'll need the fatter six-cell battery to get their claimed eight hours of battery life, not the standard four-cell pack.

Police allege Kevin Legacy, 20, and his 52-year-old father, Robert, conducted a scheme in which Kevin stole 21 school district computers so his father, the district's director of information technology, could sell the goods to unsuspecting victims, The Providence (R.I.)

Lenovo's new T400s laptop aims for the sweet spot between portability and performance, offering up a whole bevy of options in a device with a 14.1-inch screen that weighs under four pounds. The T400s is essentially a cross between the bulkier T400 and the super-slim X300. It's got business-dude-friendly features like a dock connector on the bottom, a fingerprint scanner that can boot into your login with a single swipe and components that are easy to upgrade. It's also rugged as hell, as you can see in this video.

In the childish but careful scrawl of a first-grader, Samantha Rincon writes a long, one-paragraph essay explaining why a college education is important to her. Other essays submitted to a local scholarship program were more structured, but Samantha's was one of the ones chosen to receive a free laptop computer. "One day I will be Doctor Samantha," she wrote. "It will take a long time, but my teachers and my parents will help me." Dr. Guillermo Valenzuela created the Technology Encouraging College Hopes Scholarship Program last year.

These days everyone has a laptop or a notebook or a netbook or a palmtop, etc. even children do, so much that there are cases where just at 5 they request one for their birthday. Now, when they (if they are between 6 and 12) do, you can give this one as a gift. Disney has tied up with ASUS to launch their series of branded netbooks. It is supposed to be like a "Baby's First Laptop". They are kid-proof and kid-friendly, and pack plenty of power to boot.

If you use a webcam on a regular basis, you’ve probably discovered that at times, the lighting adds odd effects on the image that shows up. Sometimes overhead lighting can create dark circles when you’re plenty rested and wrinkles you’d rather not be seen. It becomes tempting to find an adjustable desk lamp to position it as a spotlight. At least for those that mind how their cam is making them look. Well instead of doing that, you could pick up this web camera that has a little built-in lighting.

A new generation of cheap, lightweight machines is about to upset the world of mobile computing. The first of the “smartbooks” range is set to go on sale in Britain in September and, according to the makers, will cost as little as £50 while offering many of the features usually associated with laptops that cost 10 times as much. The new computers look like netbooks, the cheap “pocket” PCs that took the high street by storm last year.

Laptops using Intel's low-power chips for machines bigger than a netbook checkered PC displays at Computex Taipei on Tuesday, revealing growing popularity for the chips and the class of laptop.

Acer has finally made an honest product of its Aspire Timeline, so to speak, and Intel's brand-new ULV processors, designed for precisely these kinds of laptops, make a surprise appearance, pulling the base price down to $599, from $699. The rest of the info is largely unchanged from our first look at this early entrant into the recently burgeoning field of semi-thin, semi-light laptops: the 8-hour battery life claim still holds; LED backlighting keep power usage down, brightness up on the 1366 x 768, 16:9 screens.
