Funny that Google cannot tell me how to pack a laptop for shipping. I tried all kinds of searches and as soon as I said "laptop" - Google gave me page after page of results which wanted to sell me something.
So here is how you ship a laptop. Go to Fed Ex and purchase a $10.00 laptop box - it is specially padded and very cool and adaptable to any sized laptop. Perhaps UPS has such a thing as well.
Here is a URL:

They won't insure your laptop unless you use this box. At $10.00 it is a bargain - much cheaper than wrapping your laptop in bubble packing material putting it in a box.
