Best way to carry 1 13" MacBook and 1 Dell D820 Widescreen Laptop

My company gave me a Dell D820 Wide screen laptop PC. But it of course is locked down with what the company will allow to be on it. I want to purchase my own 13" Macbook to take with me when I travel for my stuff. I travel Monday-Thursday every week. Since I fly out on Monday morning and back home on Thursday evening, I need to find the best way to carry both without damaging my new MacBook. My initial thought was to get a large bag and put the 13" Speck See Through Shell on my Macbook and maybe put that in a Neoprene Sleeve, and then put that in my large bag with my Dell PC. Does that make sense or is there a better way?
Thanks for Your Help.

Thanks for Your ideas. I have a big rolling computer bag (Swiss Army) can't remember the brand name, but I just ordered my MacBook last night and am pretty excited. We have 4 PCs in the House now. My plan is to eventually convert all of them to Macs and get a 1TB Time Capsule.
I ordered a clear SPECT to protect the MacBook. I wasn't sure if it would fit in the Neoprene carrier with the Clear SPECT attached to the MacBook. I read somewhere that the Neoprene carrier can make black stains on the white MacBook cover. Someone else said if You wash the Neoprene first it won't leave the marks. But my question is, wash it how?
Thanks For Your Help

  • What is the best way to reformat my macbook and reinstall?

    I run a Macbook on OS X Lion which I installed via the app store. How can I reformat my Macbook and reinstall OS X Lion without the disc? Secondly, How can I then upload my TimeMachine backup so it was the same as before?
    Will this repair all disc permissions and ensure maximum performance from my computer?

    You must create your Lion install disk, before.  Read here how you can:

  • What is the best way to safeguard my files and pictures before I send off my MacBook Pro to get fixed?

    What is the best way to safeguard my files and pictures before I send off my MacBook Pro to get fixed? I am running Mavericks and use an AirPort Time Machine to back-up all my files.

    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. You need at least two independent backups to be completely safe. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional—ask if you need guidance.
    If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you know how to restore to an empty drive.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.

    Apple also recommends that you deauthorize a device in the iTunes Store before having it serviced.

  • What is the best way to connect a MacBook Pro to my HiFi system ?

    Hi,
    I'm new to Apple support communities having just bought my first Macbook Pro (a 17" 2.5GHz i7 model) and this is my very first community post.
    Im a bit of a Hi-Fi enthusiast, so, with my new MacBook Pro I've taken the opportunity of completely reloading my iTunes library in high quality Apple Lossless format. Took a while but now I've completed the task Im pleased I've done it.
    My question is, what is the best way to connect a Macbook Pro to a high quality Hi-Fi preamp - my Hi-fi system is musical Fidelity, and the pre amp (an A5  CR Pre amp) and this pre amp, which has superb audio quality, only has analogue phono inputs ? 
    I'm interested to understand what both the wired and wireless connection options are. I'm guessing one option must be to use the headphone output, but I have no idea if the output from the headphone socket on my new macbook (which is presumably designed to drive headphones) would be at a suitable level for a phono line level input ?
    Ive also read a few comments about using digital connection - and my second question would be - what is the audio digital connection on my macbook ?
    Aplogies if this question has been asked lots of times before but I've looked through some previous posts and can't find any answers in simple and straightforward language concentrating on the issue of connecting a MacBook Pro to an analogue phono pre amp input ?
    Thanks in anticipation of some advice.

    Look at the back of the reciever and see what your connection options are, the front headphone jack is output usually.
    The Mac's  analog audio in/out ports doubles as a optical in/out ports.
    The analog won't over power your amp, it's just a headphonejack, like a powered mic, just enough power to get the signal to the destination in one piece.
    Since you have a analog amp, your stuck with inferior analog connections, however you mentioned you wish to listen to the best sound quality of your lossless music.
    To do that your going to need a decent surround sound system with Toslink optical import jacks, a Toslink stereo jack to regular Toslink adapter, Toslink cable and enable the optical output in your System Preferences >Sound
    Another method is to use a Airport Express, it also has duo analog/opical out port. Then set up the Airport Express for iTunes streaming using the Airport Utility, then in iTunes setup the lower right corner one can set the connection.
    I recommned a Harmon Kardon surround sound system, with their 100 watt satelight speakers and the 200 watt subwoofer. Enable the "concert hall" and other neat effects which will turn your 2.0 (stereo) iTunes music into 4 channel speaker sound filling the room with music and sending the lower channels to the subwoofer.
    It will likely bring tears to your eyes that you can actually hear the full quality of your music as intended, I almost quarranty you will never want listen to music on a crappy iPhone or iPod again.
    If a surround sound system is out of your budget, you can get by using the Harmon Kardon "Go Play" portable stereo and a analog stereo cable.
    If your going to use your analog amp to power reference speakers, then there are various analog adapters of all sorts to make the appropriate connections once you know what they are, check out Radio Shack online for them.

    What is the BEST way to get my macbook with lion on it, to communicate with my Canon 40D camera? It says the utility disk is a PowerPC app and that is no longer supported. What do I do now? I can't upload photos from my camera.

    Also, I had the same problem happen when I tried to install an older version of Corel Painter. Are Macbook Pro users just NOT supposed to be able to use their laptops for the purposes they are best designed for?

    What is the best way to increase my Macbook's memory? it is a 4g now.

    And what is the exact model of MBP that you have?
    Normally, assuming your Mac supports more than 4 GBs, the best way is to buy the specific RAM required for your machine to replace the RAM that is now installed. But we can't tell you that without knowing what model you have.
    Open System Profiler in the Utilities folder and report what you find displayed for the Model Identifier.

    What is the best way to clean my Macbook Pro anti glare screen

    I have used WINDEX ELECTRONICS for about the past 6+ months:
    http://www.windex.com/en-US/Products/Pages/electronic-cleaner-and-wipes.aspx
    I apply it with a small damp microfiber cloth and wipe the excess off with a large microfiber cloth.  The display looks the same when it came out of the box.

  • What are the best ways to protect your macbook?

    I have ordered my 1st ever Apple product, the White Macbook.
    I would like to know what are the best ways to keep it save and in top condition?
    Apple have given me this case as a good will gesture, so I won't be needing a case for it: http://store.apple.com/Apple/WebObjects/ukstore.woa/wa/RSLID?mco=94689A4C&nplm=T J702
    But any solutions for stopping the discolouration (i hope this never occures on with my macbook) but any invisible stickers which I can put on the palm areas?
    Any tips?

    The new plastics really don't have the discoloration problem, so you don't actually need palm rest protection. Any dirt can be taken care of with a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. I use only a silicone keyboard cover by Carapace to protect my macbook. I type so much that the letters often wear off my keys, and this will prevent that, as well as dust entering through the keyboard or, God forbid, any spilled liquid. The macbook heat vents are in the back, so my macbook does not overheat with the keyboard cover in place.

    Not going to happen the way you want it to.
    When you add a gift card balance to the Apple ID, it's available for the Apple ID.
    Probably best to create unique Apple ID's for each... this will also make things easier in the future as purchases are eternally tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with.

    In the page I simply referenced the facescontext directly... no need for a custom servlet.
    public void createcookie() {
    FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    HttpServletResponse resp = (HttpServletResponse)fc.getExternalContext().getResponse();
    Cookie userCookie = new Cookie("cookiename", "cookievalue");
    userCookie.setMaxAge(-1);
    userCookie.setMaxAge(3600);
    resp.addCookie(userCookie);
    return null;
    public String readcookie() {
    FacesContext fc = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
    ExternalContext ec = fc.getExternalContext();
    Map cookiemap = ec.getRequestCookieMap();
    if (cookiemap != null) {
    Cookie cookie = (Cookie) cookiemap.get("cookievalue");
    return cookievalue;
    For reference I could not get getCookies() method of HttpServletRequest to work.. it would only return JSESSIONID.
