Looking at getting something to put my new 15" powerbook in. Narrowed it in to the Tucano second skin or the powersleevz. Is it just personal taste or is one better than the other?.

Thanks.

I've got the Tucano, and it's just fine. Nothing special, really, but I have no complaints.

From the looks of things, I think you would get more protection out of the Tucano
Do you want to carry it in a backpack or something, or do you have a bag for it and you just want to stop scuffs?

Neopren is a great material to protect Powerbooks. Its waterproof and it damps small shocks.
I have a Tucano for my 12 inch Albook. Had Hogoto Booksavers before. This time I saved the money and got the cheaper ones. And it was the wrong decision.

Check the Higoto Powerbook saver. Its the best neopren bag you can get for your powerbook.
