What's wrong with that one? I own a similar one (black, 15 inch) and haven't had any complaints since I got it (about 3 months ago).

The MBP gets hot, there's no changing that, but it's not the case's fault. Yes, I have the hard one.
The aluminum body transmits heat from the insides like crazy, but I've never gotten past 90 degrees C on the GPU while playing Skyrim on Ultra and overclocking. Keep in mind the heat exhaust on the MBP is behind the screen and the case doesn't block this. Then again, you probably want to keep your MBP on a cool, flat surface (I use a glass desk or a logitech lapdesk) if you're going to do some heavy work.
Hope this helps :]

have both incase and speck. speck is much better crafted. it fits better and MUCH MUCH easier to take off. the fit ont he speck is better as well. the incase one scratched my older macbook pro since the fit wasnt as good (gaps) ...me no happy bout that
