MacBook pro / Laptop flight case?

Does such a thing exist? A hard flight case like we put our tt's and mixers in...

why would you want to put your computer in one of those?
get a computer bag! I wish the cdjs were small enough where I could carry them with me lol

cheers

i got it when i was buying a macbook for the first time like 4 years ago. i went on a spending spree that day

srsly though, $80 for a nylon backpack that basically only holds a macbook?

I could pay a hooker to walk around with me and hold it for less.

What about those hardened briefcases that look like mini flight cases?

Microphone flight cases without the foam?

Usually on planes I carry my laptop with me (either in a typical laptop bag or the one I designed for my portable (X32), but it's not mingling about with other gear in proper flight cases. I'd definitely want something with a hard shell if it was going to get bumped around.

...I already have a computer bag I just feel like my computer isn't 100% safe tho. I always find myself bumping the corners when going in/out doorways and stuff... And the other day I had to hit my brakes hard and my computer bag slammed against the dash. It sucked but luckily no serious damage. The backpack thing looks ok. Still trying to find a flight case.

They do exist...

But they're pricey.

put it in a sack together with some food, some water, some extra clothes, backup CD-folder in case everything goes to hell with your computer, and ur set to do fine on a weekend djeing. lol. if the sack is big enough u might be able to fit a midicontroller too!
