After ordering and returning the Matias Laptop armor because it was just to thin to carry the 17 uMPB, power brick and one book (about 1 inch thick) I need some advice on the following bags:

Note that the uMBP 17 is covered by a Speck hard plastic case, so it adds about 1/4 inch to its dimensions !!!


PELICAN: This case looks bullet proof, but I'm concerned about the interior case and fitting the uMBP.

STORM CASE: This case seems similar to the Pelican but with more pouches. It's 1" thicker, and it seems to be able to hold everything I need. Again, concerned that the uMBP 17 will not fit in the included laptop tray. Seems heavy too.

ZERO HALLIBURTON DZ5: The venerable, indestructible and expensive case. Its a 4" wide, and I'm not sure the uMBP (with the Speck) will fit...

ZERO HALLIBURTON DZ7: The even more expensive case, but it will definitely have the room...

Can't wait to get your opinons....

Thanks
