Hey there, it has been about 2 months since I got my MBP and I still haven't been able to find a case that I like.

I am looking for a sleeve-type case, which provides great protection...especially from the pressures of overloaded books in my bag.

I have done some tracking down and the following are what I have come down to. If you have any more suggestions for great protective sleeves than please provide your input!

1)15.4" MacPro (Guaina - Brown/Orange OR Black/Grey)

2) MarWare Sportfolio Sleeves

3) 15.4" MacPro (Microfibra)

4) MacCase Sleeve

I have the tucano microfibra and am mostly happy with it though I haven't had to put it to the test at all. It seems like it protects well against scratches and even water but I don't know about pressure. Also, its a very snug fit and I have to apply a bit of force to get the MBP in... I guess its supposed to be that way and will probably loosen with time but for a while I worried that the case might have been for a powerbook instead (which it definately isn't). Might also want to check out crumpler cases.. they look pretty cool and are waterproof.
