    After seeing the price/rebate at amazon, I decided to go ahead and purchase a last gen 15" macbook pro.

    What sleeve would you guys recommend? I'm also thinking about getting the Marware Protection Pack, does anyone have experience with it? Is it even necessary? Thanks!

    are there any special prices on amazon? cause i dont see them..

    and it will take a couple of weeks before the manufacturers to redesign the cases.. from what ive seen so far, i would definitely go with "incase"

    For the last gen stuff, incase makes some great stuff.

    If theres an apple store nearby, you can go and see them in person, but either way theyre good products.

    They have sleeves, and also hardcases. I have an incase hardcase for my MBP, and its a lot better then the speck cases in the past.

    So yea, anything by incase is recommended by me, and lots of other people who have their products.

    I had the incase but I never really liked it so I got the Tucano Second Skin case; it's awesome. A little pricey but if you shop around you can get it at a reasonable price, and not the price I paid :eek:

    It also comes with a matching small cable/accessory pouch.
