Brenthaven MetroLite Green Laptop Bag
First to recommend
Description
I recently upgraded to a 15" Macbook Pro for work from a 13" Macbook and needed a new bag. I was particularly fond of the Tucano Workout bag, but I was interested in changing it up a little. The MetroLite is not quite as slim, but that's because it's got more protective padding. I found that the exterior cable pocket is functionally genius. Plus, I have an affinity for green, particularly the limey/avacado shades.

Canon EOS 40D 10.1MP Digital SLR Camera

3 people recommended this item
Description
I can't speak more highly for the intuitiveness of the Canon menus and ergonomics. The digital SLR is really something even amateurs can value in that learning even some of the most basic fundamentals can enable you to take brilliant photos. Not to mention that shooting in RAW will allow those who are more adept at Photoshop to have far more options in processing. A must have for anyone with a real interest in taking their photography to the next level.

Apple MacBook Pro
145 people recommended this item
Description
I bought a 17" MacBook back when Apple first introduced them (back then they were called "PowerBooks", of course). Five years later, it's amazing to see how far the MacBook has come.
It looks and feels almost exactly like the original, until you begin to notice the subtle details. The magnetic power cord that "pops" off if someone accidentally trips on it. The screen is sharper and has a significant boost in resolution. The processor is a screaming-fast dual-core intel. All wrapped up in its familiar aluminum shell, with a backlit keyboard. Ah, sweet bliss...

Motorola KRZR
6 people recommended this item
Description
I was never a fan of the RAZR, but I have to say that the KRZR is one hot little item. My old cell phone broke and I was up for a "free" upgrade, so it had to be done. I haven't gotten through all of the features, but it is quite nice. Sleek, shiny and thin, hello!

Sony MDR-EX51LP Fontopia Headphones
5 people recommended this item
Description
These came highly recommended, and truely are the most comfortable earbuds I've ever used. The sound is very nice and perfectly blocks out all of my coworkers snorts, sniffles, low-playing-but-not-low-enough Creed music, and football blathering. It comes with soft caps (that insert into your ears) in different sizes, maximizing the fit for anyone's ears. Very thoughtful!
