Know someone who is getting a new laptop this Christmas? Looking for a cute, unique computer case instead of those boring, ugly ones at Best Buy? Check out these felt laptop sleeves from Rare Device. They come in 13″, 15″, or 17″ and your color options are hot pink, orange, or light green. My personal fav is the green… just in case you were wondering :-).
These are great because you can slip them inside a larger brief case, bag, or suitcase and they won’t take up any more space than if the computer was in the nude.
