    I just want to know where I can get a good deal on a laptop case for a 15.4" that has decent padding and a shoulder strap. This is for commuting to work. thanks. I couldn't find this elsewhere so forgive me.

    newegg.com has some pretty great prices on laptop cases. What it sounds like you're looking for is a messenger style bag, sort of like a glorified man purse for computers :) So definitely check that page out, or just swing by BestBuy and see what they have, pick one up if you want, or pick one out and order it for cheaper on newegg.

    in addition to the above you can check out ebags.com

    if you keep an eye out on bensbargains.net, you'll see some coupons pop up every now and then for a deal on a bag.

    You could always get an aluminum brief case for it, They run about $100 at staples or online. Mezzi.com seems to be a pretty good brand for them, although I'm yet to try on still.
