Another year is almost over and another year is about to begin.Now it’s confirmed 2016 is the worst year on record, we’re all thankful for the upcoming opportunity to turn over our calendars. But before you can ring in 2017, you have to get over one last hurdle: your office’s secret Santa. Don’t pull a Jack Peralta and leave it to the last second. It’s unlikely you’ll get dragged into a hostage situation a la Die Hard, but you will end up giving them a bad gift. Start early and think about this logically. In an office where everyone works on their Macs day in and day out, you’ve got a massive clue staring you in the face. An accessory to both protect and personalize their biggest work tool is an easy gift idea. Not only are MacBook Pro Retina skins affordable, but they’re also a simple purchase that will cut out all of the stress of your task. Best of all, they’ll impress your secret Santa!
Think about their Retina. If they’ve been using it for more than a few weeks, chances are it will look it. Scrapes, gouges, and even dents may litter the aluminum chassis. Dirt, food, and other spills may be permanent stains on their sensitive trackpad. To say nothing of their habits, these cosmetic damages are hard to see on such a beautiful laptop. Not only will skins for the new 13″ MacBook Pro camouflage existing marks on their Retina, it will prevent any more from happening.
That’s because the material of the top skins (or decals, as they’re also known) creates an air-tight barrier around the laptop. Made from 3M vinyl, this material stops sharp edges, rough surfaces, and careless handling from ruining the sleek lines of the Mac. It’s also water and grime resistant. Dirt doesn’t show up easily on its surface, but once it does it’seffortless to wipe down. Meanwhile, if your co-worker has a habit of working with an extra-large coffee nearby, the MacBook Pro decal will save them from any chip-frying spills. But perhaps the secret weapon of such a material is its grip. The texture of the best decals gives hands and slick surfaces more purchase to hold onto, so your co-worker is less likely to drop their Mac.
Next to protection, personalization is a decal’s best feature. You can customize these MacBook skins to fit your co-workers style perfectly. If they always show up wearing the color green, then you know what style to choose. If you’re stumped, there’s plenty to pick from. You can choose from a variety of textures, like carbon fiber, metal, and natural stone, and you can mix them with true colors, like orange, green, and red. Another gift you can give is recommending to them an auto clicker for mac.
Stop stressing over secret Santa. The holidays are nerve-wracking enough. Hop online to find a personalized MacBook Pro Retina decal and your job as Santa will be over in as little as 5 minutes. It won’t take long to click through the options and design one for your co-worker. You’ll probably have time to throw in a skin for yourself!
