Comments about Pelican 1490CC1 Computer Case with Lid Organizer and Tray (Black):
Very sturdy case for taking your laptop on location. I converted mine to fit a 17" Macbook Pro with a razor blade and hot glue. My laptops will never get dented corners again. Only downside is that the case and computer together are a bit heavy. I recommend this case for photographers!

Comments about Pelican 1490CC1 Computer Case with Lid Organizer and Tray (Black):
I use this case for air travel for my 14" laptop, It's okay, and overall I am very happy with the unit. It's a bit on the heavy side.
Locking latches are good enough quality and the case is very rugged looking.
I'm sure I won't be having any problems.
If given the same opportunity to purchase again I would seriously look at carbon fibre alternatives.

Comments about Pelican 1490CC1 Computer Case with Lid Organizer and Tray (Black):
I'm a commercial photographer that does a lot of location work, and was looking for a laptop case for this purpose. After watching Chase Jarvis' laptop case video (see youtube!), I was inspired to replicate his solution which is based on the 1490 CC1 case. I certainly wasn't disappointed. I can fit a 15" MacBook Pro, with two LaCie Rugged Hard drives stored underneath the laptop, and have room for a spare battery, power adapter, card reader and more stored in the top flap. Highly recommended for those that travel off the beaten track and need to pack a laptop.

I'm using this with an OCZ DIY Notebook and it fits like a glove. The case is very well designed and the parts mate well. This is my third Pelican case purchased from B&H. [...]

This case fits a MacBook Pro and is a handy, customizable, reliable case that I would recommend to anyone working in the field, anywhere, under the most severe conditions including shock, crushing force, dust, dirt, moisture, and immersion (it'll float with an MBP, spare batteries and full kit).

Comments about Pelican 1490CC1 Computer Case with Lid Organizer and Tray (Black):
The case works great for my HP notebook. I turned the computer tray around and made a small cut out so I can access the USB ports and card slot. With an external hard drive and a card reader held in the lid organizer and a broadband card, I don't have to take the computer out of the case to use it in the field. I can photograph, download to the computer and review the images in the field with a client. The case is as sturdy as they come.
