plz help me find a particular laptop case

#1 Post by mattbiernat » Sun Jan 11, 2009 10:39 am

i've looked everywhere in this forum. but i can't seem to find a particular case. i am looking for the following:
1. perfect fit on x300
2. has to be made out of strong material and not the mushy kind used in apple cases
3. plain envelope shape, no extra pockets.
4. black

Are you looing for a case/sleeve, perhaps like a Zeroshock III? I have (2) of these, one for my S10 and the other for my X61s. It's a really well made case/sleeve with better than average protection for the laptop. An X300 is 12.5 x 9.1 x 0.73 , so it would fit in the linked case.

practically sounds good but i was looking for more like envelope design.
something like this one: http://www.targus.com/us/product_detail ... u=TSS054US
but not made out of soft material.

I hate to sound like a broken record, but I still strongly recommend a Booq Vyper ballistic nylon sleeve.

That's a nice sleeve.

You are planning on putting that inside a bag with some better protection though aren't you? I'd hate to hear a horror story about how a sleeve did not provide enough protection in case of a drop, slip or something else resulting in damage or *gasp* the destruction of your beloved Thinkpad.

my T60 survived many drops without a single crack. i assume x300 is the same build quality. i just don't want any scratches.
