    Hiya i travel a lot, well i used to but my work place got blown up caught fire and what not, so i am looking for really hard case like really hard strong alluminium like briefcase for my Dell M17X laptop.

    Do Dell make one? Do you recommend a briefcase style or a backpack? I am an old fart almost 50 so a backpack might look like weird on me. I am huge and really fat did I also mention ugly? So year the backpack would look so funny on my buffalo body.


    Any suggestions as to where to find a briefcase that is hard and tough which could also withstand some pounding by lazy baggage handlers that love to just throw your bags around because they couldn't handle their days at work?

    You make fun of yourself too much for me to take you seriously..are you a 12 year old kid trying to be funny? Honest question.

    I know Alienware makes a hard Aluminum briefcase called the AlienArmor but I think they discontinued it and therefore it would be hard to find. I'm not even sure it would fit the M17x or not but it might be worth looking into.
