I have never used cases on my macs, and don't see any reason to add weight and bulk. I rather take good care of my gadgets
I guess I'm the minority on this one - I've got cases on both of my machines, and have done so since at least 2011. it adds a little weight, which I'm not concerned about, but I'd be really pissed if I got a major scratch on it. The case on my 15" has already saved it from quite a few knicks on the lid. To each their own though - its your property, do with it as you will
I do. We have 2 toddlers in the house and we protect most of our expensive electronic devices. We use the device, we don't look at it or show it to our neighbors.Really? Who the hell puts a case on a MBP?
It makes me think of the iPad cases that parents put on iPads so that their 3yr-olds can drop them over and over.

OP: I have this case and very happy with it. http://www.amazon.com/Kuzy-13-Inch-LEATHER-MacBook-Leatherette/dp/B00H1YYCWA/ref=cm_cd_al_qh_dp_i

I guess you didn't read my previous comment twice. I said we protect "most" of our expensive electronic devices, not "all". There's a big difference between the two words.do you also have a protector case for the tv, dish washer, cable box, blu ray player, plastic wrap on your furniture?
I have two cases for my late 2013 MBPr. But I'm leaning towards just rockin my MBPr nude.
I assume I'll get a couple scratches over time, but hey it's not like the laptop will last forever anyway, and I won't ever sell it. I'll run this computer to the ground.
All a case does is protect it from scratches, a drop would still be devastating.
Plus cases do add weight. I notice a difference for sure.
I'm thinking of just using a sleeve from now on. No case.
I will only say this. If you don't travel much, go for it. If, like me, you travel for a living, don't do it! After going through 2 Speck cases, you know the $2.00 of plastic that sells for $50? I went "nude" when I bought my last 13" rMBP from BB in late 2013. Two week later it took a short dive to the floor and it put a nice 3" long dent in the bottom. I was FREAKED. I don't remember how I did it but I ended up getting an exchange from BB. If they ever make an Airish version of the Pro next year, or they drop the price of the MacPad 12" to about $799 so I can justify an attractive but gutless wonder for just travel I would probably try my luck again. I am about to order a maxed out 13" from Apple who will never tolerate a dented return, I will be getting a new Speck or that cheaper one sold on Amazon Kozy I think. Be careful my friend!
Do people have/get their vehicle(s) washed after each and every time they drive it around? Same thing with your Apple device(s), it's an item after all! Enjoy it as much as you can, stop worrying about small cosmetic details!

How do you get over them?
It's common and nearly exclusive to some Apple lovers to think sex when speaking about their metal inanimate objects. I don't understand unless human contact is something they lack, or avoid, or whatever.
It just seems so bizarre...
