My vote is for the MacCase Jacket. It's mostly a sleeve case but has two small pockets and a larger mesh pocket on the front, a zippered pocket in the flap, and a large pocket on the back for flat items. It has enough pocket space for all of my accessories in a very compact package.

I purchased an American Tourister leather computer bag for 15" laptops. Inside is an internal compartment that is EXACTLY the perfect size for a MBP. Seems to be pretty well fabricated.And at $49.99 with a 3 year warranty at Office Max, it's sometimes better to be lucky than good at finding something that fits a new laptop.

I just purchased a Brenthaven for $69 that I think is the best bag going. Look at it on the www.brenthaven.com website. It is designed for the 15.3" pb or Pro. CompUSA sometimes has them.

I have a standard tm glove which is basicaly a neoprene scrach case for my 15" powerbook. My machine is in as new condition after 1.5 years. the best thing is I can carry it like a book or throw it into an ordinery ruck sack, which has the security benifit of not atracting attention like a normal laptop bag.

Don't know if this is what you are after but it has served me well
