Is it cool to buy a case now or will it maybe not fit the new montevina 17" MBP because of the case redesign? Or is it like one 17" case will fit every 17" laptop?

Driving past a mac store so I'm jw :)

Depends on the case. If you buy a form fitting case molded to the current MB dimensions, then you may have problems. If you are just buying a 17" sleeve or laptop bag then you should be fine. The LCD panel will mostly dictate the shape of the machine and the current aspect ratios appear to be fixed at this point. The only dimension that could change much is the thickness, and even then probably not by much.
