I'm not screwing around with this one , I want the best money can buy .  I travel alot and destroy luggage quickly . Now I've got a new job as a field service tech adviser with a large company , and I'm going to be needing a large , rolling , carry-on computer bag for all the gizmos . The company will cover $200 of it , so I'm looking for something under $400 . It hasnt GOT to be a dedicated 'computer case' , a smaller , rectangular , 'suitcase-style' might be fine , but the pockets that the computer cases have will be great for all the files and paperwork.

The ones that have always caught my interest are the aluminum-framed 'Wingman' models that the pilots use . . . . .



. . . . but I've been searching for them all over and I cant seem to find where they're  still being sold .

From what I'm finding that is actually available , " Briggs & Riley " seem to have the best warranty out there , and some great reviews as well .

I really wish SpecOps or Tactical Tailor made something compatible as I'd love to continue supporting them and buy American .

Any suggestions ??

Pelican 1560LOC 17" Laptop & Overnight Watertight Hard Travel Case with Wheels. Pricey though. $400 something. Might be able to find cheaper on Ebay.

Pelican is the best hands down. Looks like optics planet has it for $280 shipped. Play it right and find a online coupon for 5% off and you can almost have your company pay for it in its entirety. Good luck.

be sure to check and see if that's $277 shipped. If not I would try optics planet and find a online coupon plus the free shipping.

Thanks , will do .

It's going to be a couple weeks before I get it , and it'd be nice to be able to pick it up from a store if it is close to wherever I'd be working as well as close to the same price . I have to go to Detroit ( joy ) for one , possibly two weeks of training starting Monday . . . . so maybe someone will have it around there .
