It could be for a birthday, anniversary or just a way to say “I love you.” A computer gift is relevant on almost any occasion, and whether he’ll use his new gadget at home, at work, on the road or all three, he’ll appreciate that you did your research and found the perfect tech gift. Discover these computer gifts for men in your life.
Speaker System
A new speaker system is the best gift for the man who can’t work on the computer without having his tunes or talk radio as accompaniment. Look for good quality, clear sound. Logitech is a trusted brand that offers sets for desktops and laptops.
Laptop Skin/Case
We recommend great notebook skin for the computer user who is on the go. It offers protection and a chance for you to help your man improve his style quotient while still being true to his tech roots. Amazon offers laptop skin selections from skulls to camouflage to landscape scenes and biohazard warnings. The same goes for a great laptop carrying case. Messenger-style cases offer an updated version, and you can find bags in leather, vinyl and even cashmere. CoolComputerBags.com offers a huge selection.
USB Turntable
Music and computers go together like love and marriage. What if your man’s musical taste runs more to bands like the Beatles and the Monkees? Here’s your answer: Give him a way to digitize his records with a USB Turntable.
USB Flash Drive
A new essential in the workforce, a USB flash drive will enable him to safely carry and transfer digital information, media, documents and more from one computer to another.
Upgraded Graphics Card
As with the memory, you’ll need some knowledge of the computer system to be upgraded in order to get the right card. But if your man is a gamer or heavily into the multimedia applications of the computer, an upgraded graphics card is the perfect gift. NewEgg.com, ThinkGeek.com and other computer sites will offer plenty of graphics options, and can help you sort through them to find the right one.
Wireless Mouse/Keyboard
An easy, budget-friendly, but much-appreciated tech gift option for your man, a wireless mouse and keyboard can be used with a desktop or laptop to give him more maneuverability. This is especially nice if your man sits at a desk and works at a keyboard all day long, as having more flexibility in how he positions himself for work can help prevent tense muscles from those repetitive movements. Any computer store will carry a selection.
