Hi All,

Of course my new laptop won't fit in the old Toshiba carry case and
because it's not an armoured jobby I was thinking of making a
'tougher' carry case for it.

I didn't was anything too 'come and take my new laptop' so descrete's
the word here.


Have a look at Pelican cases - www.peli.com

They do a range of tough polypropylene cases that are also waterproof.

In the generic ones, you get a layer of stout foam in the bottom
followed by a layer with part cut fingers that you can remove and then
a layer of nobbly foam in the lid to hold everything in place.

I use a large one of these to transport two notebooks that I use,
complete with power supplies and accessories.

They also do a specific laptop case which is quite generic and would
probably work for you.

RS Components sell this range, but you can probably find better prices
by searching.
