Great show, folks! I forget how I first hear about the MPU podcast but I’ve spent the past week or two catching up since episode one.
Like Katie, I’m a big Brenthaven fan. I have a backpack case from them that I’ve been using for years now and it’s still in great shape.
I just heard the comments from last week. With regards to laptop tracking I’ve heard of this program but have yet to try it. It’s an open source utility to track a stolen laptop, does screen capture, etc: http://adeona.cs.washington.edu/
Again, thank you for the podcast. I’ve already been convinced to pick up Launchbar, 1Password and Text Expander (once I get my next laptop…I’m between Macs right now).
Thanks for the reminder about the Brenthaven warranty. I have a Brenthaven Metrolite backpack that I love, but one side of the handle has become unstitched so I need to get it repaired. Before the backpack, I used Brenthaven Eclipse sleeve which is very handy for putting into a messenger bag.
Like Katie, I bought extra laptop supplies, but I’ve set them up in my office so I have a second AC adaptor and the monitor adaptor there so I now just need to slide the computer into the sleeve and put that into my bag with my other things.
