Beware: Exploding Powerbook!
There’s a perfectly good reason that I refuse to put my laptop on my, uhm, lap. First of all, it’s a very awkward position for a touch typist like me. I feel like it’s going to topple at any minute, and I think it’s a very accident prone position – a wrong move would send your laptop dropping to the floor jeopardizing my expensive gadget. Second, laptops can get freakily hot underneath and it can get really uncomfortable. I love the family jewels too much to expose the boys to that kind of heat. I have no intention of unintentionally boiling them.
The Targus USB Hub designed for Mac users
Now I’m not really sure why this product is aiming for the Mac crowd, but a wild guess would be the design complements the Macs in several ways. I also think it is trying to bank on the Mac cult that just simply devours any products labeled as “for the Mac”. I almost bought one too… haha, good thing my trusty USB hub hasn’t given its ghost on me, otherwise!
