Indy's laptop case?
I suspect we all have friends who e-mail us "stuff" that they think is cool from time-to-time. I got this image from my dentist and immediately thought this is how to carry a notebook with your gear.

That's just cool!
Re: Indy's laptop case?
That's so cool!!!
How about the Young Indy journal cover?
That would look pretty cool as a laptop case. Especially for a netbook!
Maybe one of our talented vendors could come up with that... perhaps Magnoli? He does seem the source for Young Indy blank journals...

The above: http://twelvesouth.com/products/bookbook/
All products look to be for Apple products; iPad/iPad2, MacBook Pro and Air.
Black and red "books" in each, plus other items: stand, surface, pads, etc. http://twelvesouth.com/products/

I'm definitely getting one for my ipad (great for a digital Grail Diary).

How does one search for these on the Bay?
Any help would be great, thanks.

Magnoli
This could be a real good seller I think - especially if different sizes were available! (I am not trendy enough to have an "i - <insert model here>" but I do have a netbook). You could even do smaller ones for cell phones perhaps? Many possibilities!

Re: Indy's laptop case?
I could probably knock these out very easily without the zipper feature, but if that's lack of detail is a deal-breaker, it'll be a bit tougher to produce. If any one is seriously interested (especially in a zipper-less version) shoot me an e-mail and I'll see about making a prototype.
Kind regards,
Indy

Re: Indy's laptop case?
Those are great! Someone here needs to make a 17-inch MacBook Pro cover that looks like the Raiders Bible. Just sayin'.
Re: Indy's laptop case?
I would definitely buy one from Magnoli, but then again only if it had the zipper. And I would want a Grail Diary cover

Re: Indy's laptop case?
Holy Magnoli!!
If Magnioli could make something like this for an iPad, and to resemble the Grail Diary as Knibs7 mentioned, well that would be great! I would want one for sure. I think the zipper would be a cool feature, but not a deal breaker for me.
Thank you LJT for passing along the information!
Cordially,

Re: Indy's laptop case?
I thought about making a similar "book" laptop case several years ago while watching Raiders... the part with the antique leather Bible Indy uses for Ark references. I was considering using an actual old book with a cut out interior (like the books made to hide things in). Add a form fitting pad and carefully glue the inside pages together, then add a secure leather or ornate iron/brass closure. Never got around to it, maybe it will be a fall project.
So next question: Would Indy use a Mac or a PC.... sorry had to ask!

Too bad there's nothing for my 13" Macbook. All the ebay ones seem to be for 15".
