Perfect case for when you need to leave you MacBook while using the restroom at the cafe.
Helen Crozier
@rrhoover would you do that? I love those cases but Id be too scared to chance it down here in Sydney (ex convict town lol)
ethan
@rrhoover but then I will have lost BOTH my macbook AND the $80 case!

@rrhoover @helencrozier I've had one for years, and love it. But I can confirm it does not make you feel safe leaving it during a cafe restroom break.

Just saw this tweet: Anybody else experienced these overheating problems?
Jonathan Howard
@andreasklinger Nope, haven't after 2 years (and that email isn't saying normal use does either, it's saying something about "locking in place")

Got one for 2 years. pretty cool. but honestly i rarely use it because would take too much room in a backpack

Looks pretty good. What is the quality like? as it's quite expensive.

@chrissteggles The leather is pretty good ! The color (red) fades a bit after a year though. I'd say the only downside I had is not to be able to put the charger in it some way.

Been a big fan and user of the book book for years! Hopefully they've put a little more effort into durability. The phone case tends to fall apart after months of being shoved in and out of pockets.

I've had mine for 2 years. Still as good as new and so classy ...

Guess the MacBook Pro will get pretty hot in there?
Jonathan Howard
@fotofactorydk I've had mine for a couple years and it doesn't significantly effect the heat. The air can still escape in front of the hinge (as opposed to normal: both in front and behind). Once or twice I've taken it out of the case when I do something really intensive, like compress a long video

HUGE fan of this product. Worth every penny. Love it to bits. Best part is taking it through security at airports :-P
Ashley Whitlatch
Have you created one for PCs yet? :)

Would think twice before going into a library with it 😰

I would use something like this when I leave my mac at home, as an extra precaution just in case. Of course I wouldn't let it sit on a table in cafe. Especially since the zipper is clearly visible.
