I second Timbuk2 messenger bag and sleeve. Those are really great in both looks and quality (at least in my experience). You can alternatively opt for Timbuk2's Commute laptop bag with special laptop compartment. IMHO Timbuk2 bags are the coolest, hippest, and most enjoyable way to lug your PB around.
Besides the bag, here are my must-haves in addition to a laptop:
1. Wi-fi router or access point, or whatever - wireless access to a broadband internet connection is the best thing since the sliced bread (if money are not much of an issue (ha, like they ever are
) I'd go for Airport Extreme).2. A wireless mouse - not that a wired one can't do the job, but you'll get the best "user experience" with a wireless one. Take any Bluetooth mouse that you feel comfortable. (since I have a usb FastRF dongle from another Logitech mouse I use MX1000, but it doesn't offer *any* practical advantage over a good Bluetooth mouse)
3. A good cleaning solution - I have the incredible ability to get all my computers dirty and dusty in no time.
iKlear (as mentioned at least a gazillion times before me in the thread) is *the* cleaning solution for your PB. I also keep a can of compressed air for dusting hardly reachable parts, but I'm too geeky for my own good. 4. A pair of quality headphones or earplugs - with all due respect to Apple, the integrated speakers in PBs suck. And some privacy is always welcome (not to mention avoiding aggravated, sleep-deprived roommates with meat cleavers
). This is also a matter of personal preference and budget. I'm having a pair of Sennheiser HD497 and I'm pretty happy with them.Well that's kinda about it.
