|

Ya'll might remember my $5 Mini Case thread, well, today I do you $1 cheaper.
I give you, the MiniSakā¢!
I was in OfficeMax buying a USB hub and came across this 'Munchsak', which is actually made by the same company as the one I bought before (California/Baby Innovations). The differences with this one are that it has a much more ergonomic, padded hand strap, a zippered front pocket, and a folding/velco top closure instead of a zipper.
I find the velco closure to better than the zipper because for one it makes for a better center of gravity when carrying it, and it leaves some gaps for warm air to escape when I put my Mini in it right after powering it down. The front pocket is cool, if a little narrow. Forget jewel cases though, it barely fits a naked CD/DVD.
So, IMHO, much better looking and much more functional than my $5 bag (which, I guess, I will now have to use to actually carry my lunch in...?), and all for $1 less. If you don't already have a bag to carry your Mini in, get thee to OfficeMax (or wherever they sell these things) and buy one. Now!

Wasn't that girl on the tag in Nathan's hot dog eating contest? Those bags for the Mac mini are way overpriced. I don't see anything wrong with using something like this. |
