HP
If you must go the route of red, pink, or floral gizmo, surprise her with the girly gadget nearly every female is drooling over: the HP Mini 100 Vivienne Tam laptop. The size of a clutch, this stylish red peony-bedecked laptop is guaranteed to make you the best boyfriend/ husband ever. Sure, at around $700, this baby isn’t the most price-conscious Valentine out there, but she’s worth it, right? Forewarning: stand close by when she opens it—you’ll have to catch her when she swoons.

Carry On, Then
Target
Your geek chick’s already got a laptop, you say? Well, step right up then to view the most perfect laptop bags—the Hayden-Harnett Ibiza and the Hayden-Harnett for Target Flight Tote. Even those ladies with limited tech prowess can enjoy the classic style. For a splurge of a gift, there’s the original Ibiza tote ($198), a wonderful, utilitarian nylon tote with solid leather straps. To save a bit, pick up the Target version at a fourth of the price [left].
