Horrendous design for something so sleek. We use boytight neoprene covers in Australia. Much cooler. Waterproof, too.
they didn't provide a link, so i just wanted to see if anyone knows about the covers that this person is talking about? i did a search, couldn't find anything, so if anyone can shed some light on the subject i would really appreciate it.:)

I used the neoprene case from caselogic for my old 15" now i hope they make one to fit the 17"

Neoprene- if it's the air filled kind, I doubt it's waterproof. The only reason I mention this is I recall a thread about somebody thinking that his or her iBook sleeve made of a neoprene wet suit material was waterproof. Needless to write it wasn't.

I like the Sportfolio neoprene cases from Marware (http://www.marware.com/Overview_N_Laptop.html). They have a 17" case available.

I only came by because I saw the words 'boy' and 'tight' in the same sentence... Ahem. Sorry.

thanks for the replys about the other types of neoprene covers available, but i wanted to find out specifically about boytight neoprene covers.
the person that posted originally about them on PowerPage said that that's what they use in Australia... and since i'm in Australia i find myself wanting to know more about these boytight covers.
someone has to have some info! :)

Do not try to search for "boytight" in the U.S. if your at work. The search engine will generate a lot of sites. I don't think that they are about computer bags and if they involve neoprene they are probably all the more kinky.
Note to below:
I am serious. I just looked for the product using a couple of search engines and they generated a lot of XXX sites.
