I will be putting my MBP inside my regular simple jansport bag I use for university. So theres no laptop protection inside it -its just a regular booksack.. So i need you to pick me a sleeve for my MBP Protection and damages. ?????????

If you're really worried about minor protection (scratches etc.) the first one is for you.
If you're going to be throwing lots of books around and tossing your backpack on the ground all the time without thinking about it (don't recommend doing that by th way), and need more protection go with the Brenthaven bag.

On a side note, the Brenthaven would be nice to have to carry it around separately as well on those days you don't need a backpack.

A sleeve should be just fine. I do the same thing with mine except with a zeroshock sleeve. Protects my macbook just fine.

As an alternative you might want to check out the axio laptop cases. They have a hard outer shell with a form fit, padded interior. The computer is nicely protected inside. Axio seems to have received some very good comments from users.

Will look at the axio sleeves. Both have the handle on the sleeve I want. Just didnt know if brenthaven was bulky.. It look more dent protective.. I will see. more opinions.

I'd also encourage you to consider the rebounded cases from STMbags -
http://www.stmbags.com.au/rebound

you can get them from http://www.radtech.us/Products/Rebound.aspx .

My sister and I have one of these cases and it's perfect!

--edit--

oh no.. my bad.. i guess they don't sell it in radtech anymore.. :\ but i believe you can still find them on various websites.. sorry!

i often carry my MBP in a sleeve (mac case (http://www.mac-case.com/), no zipper) and a regular backpack too. so far nothing happens.
