I was looking for a case, bag, sleeve for my 12" Powerbook,
and I came across this on Ebay "Apple Retro 12" Powerbook laptop bag case"
Now I think I could get away with when being Funky doing Art stuff.
But my banking clients might think I'll look like a freak.
WHAT DO YOU THINK PLAY OR PASS ?

Play. You are an individual who's work speaks for itself right? If they are going to judge you on the case you carry, then maybe they have issues, not you?

If you like the case, buy it and use it.
Next, they'll be judging you based on the car you drive or cloths you wear.
What happened to your work?

Link to the case? Image?

Its this multi-colured thing, that comes up when you type " Apple Retro 12" laptop bag case " on ebay
I figured its quite neat and collectable, looks real enough

Uhm. Ok. Just viewed it...

Hey, if you like it, get it.
I don't, but that's me.

me thinks buy for collectors purpose ?

budster101 · Sep 6, 2005, 11:17 AM

Yeah, but not for public display for clients...

I thought it was hand painted or something cooler...

For a sleeve, I bought the STM Rebound, which I like a lot.

For a case, I bought the Mamba XS (http://www.booqbags.com/Detail.bok?no=63), which I also like. Just a quick warning: The VyperXS 12" bag does NOT fit the PB well. It's perfect for the iBook. I know, I bought it. Now I see they sell a new product--the VyperXSS (http://www.booqbags.com/Detail.bok?no=426), which I'm not going to buy...at least not yet. If you do, let us know if it REALLY is a snug fit.
