Recycle it...

Now, I'm a great recycler, and have been for many a year, so when I saw the Tread laptop sleeve from the guys at solio.com a couple of years ago, I thought it was a brilliant concept which not only removed old knackered tyres from the environment (and a possible breeding ground for mosquitoes) but also provided employment for local people in Colombia.

So imagine my delight at spotting one of these sleeves at a vastly reduced price - down from $100 to just $30. I jumped at the basement bargain as I will probably be picking up a MacBook Pro in a couple of weeks.

Great logic in there somewhere - get the case then get the laptop...
