The only time I leave my blogger’s lair with my laptop is to attend the annual CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in Las Vegas. The sole dangers there come from the bad breath of hungover show exhibitors and viruses flown in from the corners of the globe to be transmitted by a million filthy handshakes.

None of these fazes my trusty MacBook, but if I ever took it into the real outdoor world it would be kept inside a Hagl?fs laptop dry-bag, a waterproof, padded notebook nirvana, all wrapped up in an orange color that normally graces 1970s sci-fi movie spacesuits.

The Swedish bags, part of the pun-tastic “WATATAIT” range, are made from ripstop polyamide and have a double seal: one ziplock and one rolling closure. The computer cocoon comes in both 15 and 17-inch sizes, and even if you aren’t laptopping in extreme conditions, it’ll at least protect your machine when the high-fructose corn syrup beverage explodes inside your carry-on. ?20 ($33).
