The Everest - Just Keeping It Cool

Many road old road warriors lug huge amounts of equipment around with them. The increasing sizes of notebooks are getting bigger and in some instances bulker. With this comes the all too often yelp of "ouch that's hot" after a few hours of hard work on the keyboard crammed up in the hotel room typing up the notes. Then that annoying whizz of the notebook fan kicks into gear trying hard to cool it down. We have all been there and there is nothing more annoying when these events all kick into gear. Many just get up and go and wonder down to the bar - others the call of room service and the TV goes on. But what if, an item no bigger than a 15" notebook, very light to move can cut down on the noise of the notebook cooler and most importantly improve your posture is now readily available for just a merge £35 (plus Taxes and shipping).

Enter the Akasa Everest and the Official Line.
