    Expensive. A bit lower profile than the two I referenced, but not as sturdy as those two, either. It looks like it would be pretty easy to break into.

    i really like the style of the zero haliburton cases, they look really sturdy, but its the lack of secuity futures that kills me

    Consider purchasing an insurance policy against theft or loss, perhaps?

    I agree with the above post...smartest thing would be to get a special insurance rider on your laptop, put it in a nice solid aluminum laptop briefcase, perhaps LoJack and ensure that your data is encrypted so it's unaccessible by anyone should it get taken. I don't think you can 'bulletproof' something that's supposed to be mobile.
