IT Stocking Fillers for Computer Users

Need a last minute Christmas stocking filler? Here a few ideas for somebody that uses a computer.
1 – A laptop lock
Ideal for anybody that uses their laptop in the workplace or in a public area like a coffee shop. These locks will lock your laptop to the table they’re on – making it hard for somebody to grab it and go. They work in a similar way to bike locks.
2 – Laptop cooling stands
Another good idea for anybody that uses a laptop device. Particularly good for anybody working from home. Some laptops can get quite hot and this will affect performance – these type of stands will provide a stand for the laptop as well as cooling the system down with fans.
3 – USB Accessories
There are many accessories that harness the USB slot on a computer, providing functional usefulness or a novelty value. Popular ones include a portable fan, flashlights that can be moved around, a cup warmer or one that projects a digital clock.Â
4 – Handheld vacuum / cleaning equipment
Computers can get very dirty – they attract a lot of dust. Proper cleaning equipment can be a great gift for anyone with a computer or even games console.Â
A mini, handheld vacuum could be a great gift – they can clean the fans of computer as well as screens and keyboards. There are also cleaning kits that include wipes, canned air and more.Â
5 – New mouse or keyboard
If the person you’re buying for hasn’t had a mouse or keyboard upgrade in a while, getting a new one could be a good idea. There are specific models that suit how they use a computer – so find out if they’re a gamer, a writer/blogger or whether they prefer wired or wireless.
Merry Christmas!
