From a personal standpoint, this kind of stuff just doesn’t do it for moi, but there is a market out there—no denying that—so I’m guessing that it will fall to the female demographic to find these fluffy laptop covers more than a little cool, which is ironic really, given that cool is not something your laptop will be when it’s all rugged up in these cosy things.

The covers come in various colours and designs (as pictured) and they’re available from Lapstyle, an American company. They’ll set you back around $30 a piece, though they’re pretty much all on sale at the moment for a mere $24.99.

As a word of warning, it’s probably not a good idea to use these furry companions on laptops where the batteries are known to burst into flames, get extremely hot, or even explode. And, to be honest, it seems a little strange that you’d want to heat your laptop up even more, but each to his/her own.
