Announcing the 2009 Apples to iPods Event Kick Off!

ByMike Moffit

Beginning Tuesday, September 15, start looking for a special wooden apple at select Vermont pick-your-own orchards.

In partnership with the VT Departments of Tourism and Agriculture, Vermont’s Apple Orchards and Woodchuck cider, you could win one of 24 iPods while picking apples… as if the delicious apples you’ve picked along the way weren’t enough!

If you find one, you’re a winner of an Apple iPod nano, iPod classic or iPod touch!*

  • Accidental Damage: Why Protection Is Important

    With many schools and colleges back in session, we are seeing the usual and predicable spike in accidental damage repairs in our service facilities. It’s very important to remember that a dropped computer, one with a broken screen, or one with any type of liquid damage–no matter how new–has no warranty coverage.

    Here are my favorite protective products for Apple laptops.

    **1.** “Speck cases”:http://www.smalldog.com/search/?find=speck are hard shells that are form-fitted for a precise and tight fit to your laptop. Also see JJ’s review of Incipio Feather cases (another great case) below.

    **2.**The second part of protecting your laptop is a well-padded laptop bag like “those from Timbuk2.”:http://www.smalldog.com/search/?find=Timbuk2 These messenger-style laptop bags have lots of storage, look good, and provide great protection.

    **3.** If you prefer a sleeve-style laptop case, know that they provide less protection, but are still better than carrying around a naked computer. My favorite is the new “Hammerhead line,”:http://www.smalldog.com/search/?find=hammerhead named for CEO Don Mayer’s bulldog.

    **4.** “KB Covers”:http://www.smalldog.com/search/?find=kb+cover makes a line of form-fitting super-thin plastic covers that’ll save your bacon if you spill a small amount of liquid on your keyboard. It only takes a drop of water to make it through your keyboard and onto complex (and very expensive) circuitry below!
