    I was looking for a good skin case for my laptop to protect it when putting it in a suitcase or backpack or just when hand carrying.

    Due to the M860TU size I am hesitant to just buy a 15.4" off the net.

    Does anyone have a nice wetsuit case that fits snug?

    You get grab some Intel Extreme stickers off eBay~ :) Though I do agree with a Clevo logo though. Too bad the actual "Clevo" logo is somewhat plain...

    Thanks for the tip! Those stickers on eBay look pretty good.

    If only someone had some case tips!

    I own a Belkin slip case that I bought at walmart for $15 and it fits absolutely perfect. Zips up nice, the material is just a bit stretchy so it's a nice snug fit.

    I might pick up this guy:

    http://www.slappa.com/ptac-matrix-laptop-sleeve?sc=2&category=655

    If I do will report the results here. I really like the looks of the padding. I have a huge slappa DVD case that has been great so I trust the brand.

    EDIT: Just bought this sleeve using coupon code notebookreview for an additional 10% off. I called into support and they said the M860TU should fit no problem. The excellent support agent took measurements while I was on the phone. Will update when it arrives.

    I happened to find a large one from a company called Tucano.

    http://www.tucanousa.com/product_p/bf-xxl-154.htm

    It's a neoprene sleeve and its size is 14.2x10.4x1.57. I haven't tried it out yet, but I asked and they said it would fit this model.

    I'm thinking of sending mine to Zagg so they can do an InvisibleSHIELD on my entire casing...

    Expensive though, and I don't know if I can live without my laptop for that long xD

    Its really up to you to invis shield it, but please don't. It will totally ruin the look of the brushed aluminum, as light cannot refract on the ridges well anymore.

    Your M860tu will end up looking like a plastic HP notebook.
