In a recent article posted in the Wayne State University Student Newspaper, laptops are now considered the must-have when doing back-to-school shopping.

Taking notes on a laptop when in class is essential to modern day college life.  Colleges across the country have put in new WiFi access points to allow students free access to the Internet.  Typically, colleges will post where their WiFi locations are throughout the campus helping students connect to the Internet when they need to.

Of course when spending upwards of $1,400 for a new laptop, it must be protected.  An interesting point made in the University’s newspaper article, was that toting around a bag with a DELL logo on it means you are broadcasting to everyone that you are carrying a laptop.

“It’s best to use one of those non-descript cases, maybe a backpack where you can also put your papers or other stuff, and no one will think twice that you have a laptop in there,” stated Chris Demos, Lead Systems Administrator, Wayne State University.

Demos then went on to say, “When using a laptop at a public place, he advised to use  steelwire security cable, which he said acts as an excellent deterrent because it can take as long as 20 minutes to remove the cable and to do so inconspicuously would be impossible.”

Mobile Edge offers a solution for all of these concerns with one of the largest selections of laptop backpacks on the market.  We have backpacks that accommodate laptops up to 15.4″ and other ergonomic backpacks for larger 17″ laptops.  We have backpacks specifically designed for women and others for men.

Mobile Edge also offers one of the strongest laptop security cables on the market called the SecuriCable.  This cable screws into the computer’s serial or VGA port giving metal to metal contact for a secure fit.

Colleges students across the country purchase laptops and laptop accessories in their college computer book stores.  Mobile Edge products are offerd at hundreds of colleges across the country.  Rest assured, if you are a college student or the parent of a college student, Mobile Edge has the solution you need for mobile computing.
