Use a good case this season!! (dropped my MB!)

[SavageMac]

PLEASE remember to use a STRONG carrying case my friends!!

Last night I had my new MB in such a case, and I slipped on the ice --- bam I went down.

The laptop case went 5 feet away from me.

I screamed ****KKKKKKKK

and I am VERY surprised there is not a crack or any physical damage to the laptop.

It still works, runs, and seems 100% normal.

I was lucky....

Awesome.

You've just convinced me to get a good case for any laptop I may ever get, because knowing me, I'd do exactly what you did(fall and throw the MacBook into space).

Thanks!

Pretty much a no name brand, ICon case but performed VERY well in this particular case....i mean i hit the ground hard and as I was falling I knew inside my soul that my MB was done for. very happy to say it made it alright! my messed up my wrist but thats not as important as the laptop

I just got a Booq Folee XS for my Macbook and it's seriously the nicest bag I've ever had. Not only does it have lots of room for stuff, but it's well padded to keep one's computer safe. And it's pretty stylin' too.
OP, glad your Macbook is ok.
