Macbook Air Case - Thule Gauntlet Tmas-113

I was searching for a sleeve for my macbook air 13" model. My main concerns where,

• A slim sleeve with snug fit
• Water resistance
• Easy to carry
• Amble protection agains mild bumps
• Good aesthetics and design
• Soft padding inside
• Ease of pushing in and pulling out the mac
• No zip [ to avoid corner scratches ]

 My search ended at the Thule Gauntlet Tmas-113. Thule Sweden is no stranger to adventure sports and outdoor accessories. In their own words

So I went online and ordered one for my macbook air. After an eager wait of about one week it finally arrived. Carefully opened the pack and there it was a beauty in perfection

Soft inside for cushioning and preventing scratch

The extended pocket flap bends to provide an extra seal

There is no stitching on the sides for better water resistance 

Velcro instead of zips to prevent corner scratches

The larger inlet helps insert and take out the macbook with ease.

Fits perfectly and stays secure.

This is the view with the mac inside. Still very slim.

I have been using the sleeve for a couple of days and I must say that I am extremely happy with the buy.

Harman Kardon - Nova

Was in search of a pair of compact elegant and discreet speakers for my bedroom since my trusty amp died out on me. I was not in a mood to buy another chunky amp and bookshelves. So I went shop hopping and auditioning. Finally heard this beauty and fell in love with it. The sound is crisp and clear with ample bass. The drivers produce 40 watts RMS and has enough and more power for the bedroom or even a moderately sized hall. Delight about the buy and no regrets.

Here is how an Aquarium Air Pump works....

This is a fascinating little device that we have been using for years. I have liked its operation for its straight forward operation and efficiency. Here is a short video I made explaining its operation.
