What's your favorite case for the MacBook

I normally use Brenthaven cases for my Apple laptops. I am just curious what anyone else uses for their MacBook. I'm looking for more than just a sleeve-type case. I would like to get a good, snug fitting case with some room for storage.
Thanks.

I use a combination of the Incase neoprene sleeve (black with lime green interior) and the STM Medium Loft bag.
The sleeve is a very good fit and offers good scratch protection for the money. But be sure to remove the little badge from the inside to avoid it scratching the lid, awful idea sewing it inside there.
The more observant amongst you will notice that the Medium Loft bag is designed for the MacBook Pro, i.e. 15.4" screens, but after testing on the display model in the store, the larger bag fits the MacBook much better when inside a sleeve. It's a tight fit getting the MacBook into the Small Loft (13" version) with a sleeve on also. Check out www.standardtm.com.au
The sleeve is available on the Apple store, but although Apple do stock STM bags, I was unable to get this particular one on the store and had to purchase elsewhere.
My two cents. (Or pence, rather.)

HT3255 Do the cases for the Macbook 13.3' air 2011 model fit the Macbook 13.3' air 2008 model?

I recently purchased a MacBook Air 13.3' late 2008 model. I am looking for a case. Do the cases for the 2011 still fit the 2008 model?

Generally speaking yes, but check the manufacturer's website to be sure.

What is th best case for the ipad2 (excluding smart cover)

is there a good case for the ipad 2

I just reviewed 7 different cases for the iPad 2 all marketed towards families -- here's a link http://www.myoverthinking.com/2011/12/overthinking-ipad-2-cases.html
There are 7 different short videos posted there so you can see the different cases and hear my reviews. I hope my anal retentiveness and overthinking helps you figure out which one you like best! My personal faves -- the Gripcase and the M-Edge Super Shell as well as the Big Grips stand (not the case).

What is the best carrying sleeve/case for the Macbook Pro 15"

I just bought a Macbook Pro, an upgrade from my iBook G4, and need to get a sleeve. I definitely want something that has hard edges that will fit in my messenger bag, as I ride the bus and my bag sits on the floor of the bus when it is full. What are peoples recommendations? I was looking at the Booq Viper M2, but would welcome suggestions.
Thanks,
Ian

Speck makes a great SeeThru hard shell cover.
I picked up two on eBay real reasonable.

What's the best hardcover case for the Macbook Pro Retina?

Hey everyone! I recently bought the new rMBP and since this is a very expensive piece of investment, I want to protect it with a case. I've read in some forums and other product reviews of Speck and Moshi that these are the top brands in the market... and these brands are what I am thinking about of buying.
The only concern that I have is that it might chip the aluminum of my rMBP when I'm trying to install it and it will accumulate dusk in a few weeks. If so, regular cleaning means taking my hardcase often... would it damage my laptop and the aluminum?
Any brand suggestions? Thanks! : )

So if a hardcase would make my rMBP heat up... is a skin better? I would reaaaallllyyy want to have something to protect my Mac.
I found this: http://www.amazon.com/SPIGEN-SGP-Protector-Fingerprint-Incredible/dp/B00ASNOSG6
And in some reviews online it's better than Zagg Invisible shield because it wont turn yellowish in color in the long run.

Anyone know of a yellow see-through case for the MacBook Air?

What is an ideal case for the iPad mini with Retina?

Hi all,
Yesterday I broke down and finally decided to buy one of the iPad Minis' with Retina on the refurbished site. It was a good deal!
I have an iPad mini 1st generation that I will be selling to my brother, so it's an even better deal!
Anyway, on my 1st generation I am using an Otterbox Defender case which I like, however it does add some bulk to it and also the screen gets very oily and riddled with fingerprints from all the touching (even with cleaning).
I am wondering if there is another case that offers as much protection as the otter box (and has the screen protector layer) but that's a little leaner and the screen doesn't track fingerprints as much ( although it is inevitable)?
I appreciate all your input!
Thanks

What kind of memory works for the MacBook Pro

I have a MacBook Pro ( Mid 2009 ) I would like to know which brands of memory works with my configuration. ( Excluding Apple because it too expensive.) Please list the name of the brands :)

Crucial http://www.crucial.com/eu/store/mpartspecs.aspx?mtbpoid=CBD603A2A5CA7304
Corsair http://www.corsair.com/corsair-mac-memory-8gb-dual-channel-ddr3-sodimm-memory-ki t-cmsa8gx3m2a106c7.html
The prices are almost the same and it's the better solution.
I bought Crucial myself.

What's your favorite MacBook Pro case?

What’s your favorite 15” MacBook Pro case? I am looking for something small that will safely hold the 15” Macbook Pro and some accessory’s such as a mouse and AC adapter.

Bag n’ Tag It
by: Digital Dude
In today’s world of everything slim and integrated, more techno fanatics and Spartan travelers are embracing the minimalist approach. To that end, I was looking for an alternative to my bulky computer briefcase for travel. So, I ordered the “Buzz” by Tom Bihn.
Initially, I was a bit skeptical since the price of the Buzz is rather high for a nylon bag in today’s crowded market. Fortunately, the folks at Tom Bihn have an excellent guarantee with great customer service. If you receive the bag, and it’s not what you expected, simply return it without having to request an authorization. Try that with any other bag manufacturer!
Exterior:
My first impression after opening the box was that the Buzz is in fact, a very well made nylon sling-bag with attractive accents. The initial fit on the back and shoulder was comfortable, and the crossover strap is wide and it fits guys and gals without interference. It’s also nicely padded and has a large durable quick disconnect fastener below your left rib area. There is a smaller adjustable waist strap for a more secure and balanced fit. I found it wasn’t necessary for casual carry although quite useful when riding a bike or running to catch that flight.
Interior:
The Buzz has two main compartments with waterproof zippers that don’t snag and they seal very well.
The main compartment houses a unique padded panel with a fitted corner, similar to a fitted bed sheet that stretches over one corner of the MacBook Pro. The space between the computer holder and the zippered panel provides room for a book, magazines, documents, or even a small travel neck pillow.
The second zippered compartment is on the very back and is slightly smaller or stepped down from the main compartment. It includes the usual key strap and some angled stitched pockets for pens, business cards and one larger pocket that can hold a Passport or airline tickets, etc.
The third compartment is on the exterior right side and is made of elastic material and is designed to hold a bottle, small umbrella or equivalent. It also has two pull straps to further secure its contents.
Finally, there is a super convenient compartment in the center of the crossover strap with a Velcro closure. This is my favorite feature, since it holds your cell, iPod or more notably, the new iPhone securely across your chest.
Field Tests:
I harnessed the Buzz, adjusted the straps and wore it for a week in and around town. The Buzz and its sling design holds' the 15-inch MacBook Pro, cables, charger, etc. in a vertical orientation on the back. This permits full range of motion for both arms, unlike most soft-sided computer briefcases.
At times, I wanted to shift the load, so I simply reached around with my left hand and lifted up slightly on the bottom as I grabbed the ferry-loop (top strap) with my right hand. In this manner, you can easily adjust the tension on the crossover strap.
The Buzz shoulder bag is advertised as offering “moderate” protection, although it’s quite adequate for most common travel activities. However, I wanted to see if I could fit my MacBook Pro while stuffed in the Tucano “Second Skin” sleeve. To my delight, it fit nearly perfect as though it was made for “The Buzz”. This combination effectively increases the travel protection by at least 2:1.
Wish List:
Accessory provisions or lack thereof, is a shortfall with many bag manufactures. User’s end up stuffing their charger, cables and adapters into secondary bags which all end up at the bottom, resulting in disorganized clutter. I visualize a removable fitted panel with separate compartments or straps that hold a basic array of typical computing items. In fact, I ended up using one of my luggage toiletry panels to help organize my computer gear in the Buzz. It holds everything vertically and eliminated the pile at the bottom.
After field-testing, I decided this bag was definitely a keeper’. However, I would prefer a tighter fit of the MacBook Pro or a matching sleeve. I would also favor a more contoured and softer crossover strap with an exterior I.D. card and pen/pencil slot. Since I’m dreaming here, how about a less abrasive backside for improved comfort.
Conclusion:
The Buzz sling bag is a well-made, lightweight, ergonomic alternative to a backpack or the horizontal briefcase design. It holds most everything one might need for mobile computing while providing an excellent provision for Apple’s new iPhone.
Regards,
~DD

Hi, I am from Mauritius and I can't find my country for the MacBook Bottom Case Replacement Program and hence, can't order the kit. What can I do?

Hi, I am from Mauritius and I my country is not in the list for the MacBook Bottom Case Replacement Program and hence, can't order the kit.
What can I do?
Thank you beforehand.

There may be an authorized Apple service provider who can handle the matter
of obtaining a replacement bottom part to the computer in question and also do
the necessary labor, if your unit qualifies for the program...
Did you see this section (Apple - Find Locations) and choose your country
then enter City and Product information to find authorized service provider
for your Mac portable, as supported by an independent local business?
There are three categories, not all may be available across your country;
Sales, Service, and Consulting.
•Apple - Find Locations - Argentina:
https://locate.apple.com/ar/es/
Another selector to try for service & support options appears through this link:
https://getsupport.apple.com/SASOLocaleAction.action
The first one above tends to list any authorized retail repair & sales business
that provides product, service, sales, and repair in the area. With contact info.
In any event...
Good luck & happy computing!

I want to buy a hard case for my macbook pro, but I don't know what year it is. When I use the serial number to try and find out, all it says is, "~VIN,MacBook Pro (15-inch Glossy)". When I type that into amazon for a case it gives me nothing!
