I've been on a quest to find the best PC notebook case. I carried a Targus, but I looked like a geek. I tried a special JanSport backpack, but it didn't have enough padding. Then I bought a Silicon Sports Notebook Wetsuit, and brother, was I dialed.

The Wetsuit is like a rubber for your notebook. Made from the same padded neoprene-and-nylon mix as a diving suit, it fits snugly around your notebook and you never have to take it off. Suddenly, your computer's safe not only from spills, scrapes, and scratches but bumps, too ­ the screen side has a built-in metal plate for added protection. There's even a zippered pocket.

But the best thing about the Wetsuit is that you never have to worry about dropping your notebook again. With a handle and a shoulder strap, a Wetsuit-clad notebook is definitely carry-friendly. If, like me, you tote it around with a mug of joe in one hand and the phone in the other, you gotta get one.

It comes in three sizes to fit any notebook out there. My suited-up WinBook fits in my backpack and gives me enough protection to hit the road for real.

Notebook Wetsuit: US$35. Silicon Sports: (800) 535 4242, +1 (415) 572 2700, fax +1 (415) 572 9675.
