The $20 iMouse G3 Illuminated Gaming Mouse lights up in three colors. It includes a “ruggedized gaming cable and rubberized top layer to improve gripping traction,” says the company, for precision while game playing. It lets you “work on most glass, wood, marble and leather surfaces without needing a mouse pad.”

The $50 Mac Pro Security Lock Adapter “lets you use a compatible Kensington or similar style third-party lock (sold separately) to keep your Mac Pro secure.” You don’t need special tools and you don’t modify the Mac Pro; instead, the adapter secures the Pro’s outer shell to the main frame, preventing access to the computer’s internal components.

The $60 MacBook Module Sleeve is a “simple, functional laptop sleeve” designed to hold your 15-inch laptop. Three large pockets on the front can be used to store your iPad, iPhone and various other items. The sleeve is made from polyester canvas, crafted with a neoprene liner and ”military grade” webbing to protect your most-precious electronic items.
