I made an accessory purchase last week for my new MacBook and probably the most important. Its a Brenthaven Prolite I case. So I thought I'd throw a review. 3 most important features for me are: lightweight, durable, and storage. All of which met my needs with the Prolite. I couldn't ask for anything more.
The material is made of ballistic nylon, very durable. At 3.5 pounds it is lightweight especially for all its storage capabilities. The design is well laid out; I don't get easily confused as to what compartment is for what. The zippers are easy to grasp, opening/closing is a snap. The main compartment is very snug and I feel safe having pads on all sides that are removable, which I thought was very interesting. Tons of compartments for your power cord, cell phone, pens, mouses, documents, etc... The handle rod makes it very easy to pick up and carry with your hands and the shoulder pad is VERY comfortable, unlike others that dig into your shoulder.
Overall I am very happy with my purchase. At $100 I thought is a perfect price for what you get. Quality product and lifetime warranty, can't beat that. I should have more pics this week of it stuffed with things.
