Carry your 12" PowerBook or iBook in style with the SportFolio II. The neoprene skin provides ample protection while the bag remains slim enough to be stowed in a larger briefcase when needed.

An excellent 12" netbook case!
Searching for a good case for your 11" or 12" netbook? Stop looking because your search is over!After what seemed like hours of searching through Amazon for that perfect netbook case, I accidentally stumbled upon this relatively unknown item. This is EXACTLY what I've been looking for in a netbook case!First, some background info. I have a 12" netbook, the excellent ASUS Eee PC Seashell 1201N, that I also purchased through Amazon at its introductory price. My netbook dimensions measure 11.6 x 8.2 x 1.3 inches, just barely larger than the now-popular 11.6" netbooks. I mainly use my netbook at work, carrying it to and from my vehicle on a daily basis.My search began for a handle-less, envelope-style case where I could just easily slip my netbook in and out. I browsed through some of the available cases at the local stores and quickly realized (besides the few, ugly and expensive options available) that the neoprene material that most of these cases are made of seemed kind of slippery and it was probably just a matter of time before I'd accidentally drop my netbook on the ground.So my search turned to finding something with a handle. I figured a pocket or two would also come in handy, in case I wanted to throw the power adapter and mouse in with it. If it were aesthetically pleasing that would just be a bonus. I found it amazing that with all the various netbook cases available, there was always something about each that either didn't suit my needs or was just downright hideous!Well, that was until I ran into Marware's SportFolio netbook case! Right off the bat, it looked liked a basic, low-key case which is what I was looking for. Nothing fancy, no bright colors or designs and nothing offensive about it, unlike so many other cases I saw. Taking a closer look at it, the SportFolio appears to be well constructed and designed. There is rubberized padding to it that makes it thicker than your regular netbook envelope case but offering you more protection for your netbook. A good tradeoff, I think. In addition to the carrying handle, you can also attach a padded, non-slip (really!) carrying strap that is included. A thoughtful feature that wasn't mentioned in the item description is the zipper protection, or rather a strip of lining underneath the full length of the zipper to protect your netbook from scratches. A very nice touch! As far as the fit goes, my netbook was a PERFECT fit, snug but not overly tight. Finally, there are no less than three pockets, 2 exterior (1 zippered) and 1 interior. I shoved my power adapter, mouse and WiMax adapter in with ease, aided by the stretchy material the pockets are made out of. I'm sure you could even fit more but bulges from the items you put in the pockets are very noticeable and become unsightly fast, sort of like when a snake eats a large prey. (Forgive the analogy, it was the best I could come up with!)There you have it. This is the best 12" netbook case that I've come across AT ANY PRICE! And just to clarify, this case is not just for Apple Powerbooks and has no Apple logos on it whatsoever (a dealbreaker for me).And if you are on the fence about purchasing the SportFolio for your netbook just take a look at the extremely competitive price! It's a STEAL even with shipping! A deal WINNER! I almost feel like I committed a crime purchasing a case this good for so little!The best 12" netbook case which is also one of the cheapest out there?!? It's just an unbelievable value!Go get it!

Handsome, Well-Made Carrying Case
I was very happy with this great find on Amazon. I recently purchased an Apple MacBook Air 12" and had a hard time finding a case that fit its dimensions. After a long search on Amazon, I knew this was the one. It has a stretchy outside pocket perfect for storing accessories. The carry handles have an insert sewn inside the tops that reduces stress on the stitching that attaches them to the case. The shoulder strap is sturdy as well. The only complaint I have about my purchase is an unidentified squeaking sound that comes from it. Hopefully, wear and tear will eliminate the sound over time. Very happy.

Perfect for small laptops, very portable and comfortable to carry
Very glad I got this bag! Took a while to find it, hidden among pages, but it's the best I've seen. For my small Dell Inspiron, it is the perfect size, and even has two outer pockets I used to store a mouse, external optical drive, and charger with no issues. One pocket zips and the other doesn't, allowing options for your needs. The strap is comfortable and removable so I can put the case in a backpack or carry it using the strap. I am very happy with this laptop bag!
