    Howdi guys,
    My Macbook was delivered today and I also received a carry case which I managed to haggle down to 1/2 price while on the phone to their sales rep. He told me he could do the deal on the Incase model and he talked me through the applestore website to where I could find it. I thought it was the Incase Neylon Case i was getting but it turned out that it's the standard Neoprene Case he was talking about.

    I'm not happy at all with the Neoprene case. It doesn't have any pockets for your charger. I'm probably going to return it but before I do which case would you recommend?

    i have the neoprene case, i think its perfect. goes into a bag on me back so noby knows its in there.

    i dont like "traditional" laptop bags cos everybody knows that you're carrying a laptop then.

    It's ok for putting in a backpack but not much else.

    I've got an older version of one of these:

    Well worth it, they've won a ton of awards for this particular bag.

    I have the Neoprene one and I love it. Goes into my packback nice and easy, and no-one's any wiser that I'm carrying around a 1500 euro laptop!

    yeah, but what about your cables and all that? I don't see the point of putting a case within a case myself. I know you can put the cables within the larger case but that defeats the purpose of having a case for you macbook in my opinion.

    I ordered the Incase Nylon Sleeve yesterday.

    Cables if I need them go into the backpack aswell. Never need them though.
