I set aside $50 to buy a case for protection, and I'm currently considering the Tom Blhn Monolith. I'm also curious about the Cyber3 Tote and Tilt.

Here are my pros and cons
Monolith
pros--great protection
cons--defeats the purpose of buying a thin computer😱
Tote and Tilt
pros--great portability, lets my pb run cooler without buying the coolpads
cons--absolutely no protection😱 for my pb

Unfortunately, I can't buy both as I don't think the Tote and Tilt handle will let the pb fit in the monolith...if I'm wrong though, then I don't have to make a choice!

So, which should I pick? Are there any other packs I should consider?

Get the Tote and Tilt and bang that sucker up - scratches & scuffs build character.

I don't mind scratches...now would it last in a backpack?😉

Any other good powerbook cases? Should I just go for the tote and tilt handle?
