subject: Laptop Bags Are The New Handbag [print this page] Laptops have become more popular over the years and many people now choose a laptop over a desktop PC. These days a laptop can do all the things a desktop computer can with the added advantage of being more portable.
Due to the flexibility and popularity of laptops children, students and many younger people choose a laptop over a PC. Of course laptops are used by people of many different age groups including the fastest growing group of computer users, the retired. The so called silver surfers are turning to laptops as they are easier to use in an armchair, easier to move around and can be hidden out of the way when not in use.
Due to there popularity there has also been an increase in the interest of laptop bags, these are bags specifically designed to allow people to carry around laptops and the associated accessories. Laptop bags used to be the sole domain of business people and those working in the information technology industry. Being practical meant that all the bags on offer were pretty much the same and to be quite frank pretty boring.
The new groups of laptop users demand a bit more flair in their laptop bags and so this has lead to a boom in the range of the types of bag available. One of the more noticeable changes is the range of colours that these bags are now available in. Gone are the days where you could only get a choice of black or maybe a dark grey which looked black anyway.
You can now get quite a vast range of colours and designs including vibrant colours such as red, yellow, green and pink. One of the reasons in the growth of colours such as pink is that there are now many more women and girls buying laptops or getting laptops as presents for school or college. For the female buyers pink is now the most popular colour of choice with black being the overall most popular colour, there are still a lot of business people using laptops and I guess pink polka dots are not for them.
As well as a growth in the range of colours there is also many more different types of design and materials that are used. One of the popular new ranges are that of the neoprene laptop sleeves, these are made from the same material as the diving suits. They are referred to as sleeves rather than bags as they can pretty much only fit the laptop itself into the sleeve leaving no room for accessories. These are primarily for people who want to carry around and offer some level of protection to their laptops when taking their computer from place to place.
