Hey guys,

Got my 8790 and noticed the carrying case it comes with isn't really designed for ruggedized scenarios. I came across this beauty and was wondering if anyone else any leads on similar products.

BTW, 8790 dimensions:

1.7" x 15.4" x 11" (HxWxD)

I'm a Scuba Diver and I use Pelican Products for all of my sensitive gear. Great Stuff from these guys but a bit on the high side for price...

Update: so I went with the laptop armor and man is it nice. Suppossedly you could drop your case from 10' and not harm your lappie. The case is aesthetically impressive and get's tons of looks. I went with the 15-17" slim aluminum. It's able to hold the laptop and brick, but runs out of space for a mouse. Usually I only use this when I travel long distances so I just put a mouse in my overnight bag. I think I got it for like around $200 which is pretty steep, but not as steep as completeing hosing your 3k laptop through some tragic accident
