I bought the Toshiba hardcase bag for mine. Toshiba 10.1-Inch Netbook Hardshell Case (Black)This is great for protection, but also serves a dual purpose. You can set your Toshiba mini on top of it and it acts as a perfect lap pad preventing any heat to absorb on to your lap. It also has a lip on the end of it preventing it from sliding around. The only downside is that it doesnt have space for anything else (i.e. - the AC adapter that you mention).

I'm using this one -> Toshiba 10.1-Inch Netbook Soft Sleeve (Black) It's made by Toshiba especially made for NB205. It's perfect fit...

I've had a nity little "sleeve" case for a couple of months. I went to Radio Shack to buy something I saw in an ad and I found this one. It's CASE LOGIC and I can't find it now on Radio Shack's or Case Logic's website. It's black neoprene and my little netbook (bigger battery) fits just fine. It has two handles and a small zippered area. I keep my mouse in there, but it has enough give that I think the power supply would fit there too. I did take the Toshiba into Radio Shack with me and they let me try it before I bought it.

Any other suggestions? I bought one at BBY and it doesn't fit in far enough to zip closed due to the extended battery shape. If I removed the battery it would fit but that defeats the purpose. Are there any soft/slip cover cases that'll fit the width?

I am also using the Caselogic netbook sleeve purchased from Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/Case-Logic-Ultraportable-Neoprene-Notebook/dp/B0018LYCYK/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s;=office-products&qid;=1253535565&sr;=8-4The netbook fits perfectly and the zipper compartment has enough room for the AC adapter and Microsoft Blue tooth mouse. The zipper compartment does look a little stretched out when everything is stuffed it, but it does zip. Only problem is there is no shoulder strap, and no hooks for one even if you wanted to add your own.

Ryan: I am very interested in finding a case, possibly one with a slot load drive. I read you mentioned a case you found but where's the picture of the case? I would love to see it if you could please provide me a link or photo. Thanks so much. -cindy

I agree. I bough the black model and the keyboard is great! Plenty of size. In fact I'm typing this post off of my nb205-210 right now. I prefer the look of this computer over the more expensive -310 version. This model is a no brainer if you don't need wifi. That is why I got this model. You will be happy with this keyboard, works great!

Did you buy the ASUS netbook yet? I've narrowed it down to this model, and would like to get something other than the popular "Black" color.I think I'm leaning towards the "Blue" color. I asked someone that bought the blue ASUS and they said it's darker blue than the picture and has purple highlights. I think that's a color I would like. Whatever color you choose really comes down to your own personal preference. Good Luck in choosing if you haven't already!!

So the netbook would have a card slot to upload photos? Will she be able to use this netbook with our printer? Im sorry for such stupid sounding questions but I want to make sure she can do things she currently does on my full size desk top. We are thinking of getting the Dell Inspiron Mini 10v. What is windows 7 starter? Not sure if you should get that or XP? Also not sure what the difference is between Intel Atom Z530 and Intel Atom N270 is, but is it worth an extra $200?

I have the Acer Aspire One 10.1 inch netbook and the case works for it. The case holds the netbook, wireless mouse/battery, and even a portable DVD drive and cord. Nice little case.

Get the bigger version. This one is too small for books but the full size is perfect. I use it as a briefcase and computer case often.

I ordered an Amazon Basics Netbook Bag with Handle for 11.29. (B002VPE1Q6) It is black with an orange interior made out of a foam padding covered by microfiber cloth. The ASUS tablet and docking keyboard fit just fine. It has a pocket in front to carry the charger and cables.

Yes, that's a very nice case, I like it the best of the several I've owned over the years. It's of course much bigger than the think ThinkPad but it will hold all your adapters and peripherals in one place. I also bought the Lenovo neoprene case which snugly fits the ThinkPad for time when size is an issue.

Enjoy it! Nzxt cases are truly beautiful. I've built all my machines in one. If you have doubts or questions look up Linus tech tips he has some in depth reviews. Also if anything breaks the Nzxt warranty will ship you out a new part. :D merry Xmas !!

Hey ggkitty, do you mind telling me how this bag worked out for you? I also want it to carry around my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2012 edition. It will also have the official case but shouldn't be much bigger. Does your tablet fit with maybe some room to spare? Thank you!

Is there no magnet in the case? I just received mine and it appears it will NOT wake the computer up when I open the case, nor will it but it to sleep when I close the case. The previous case I was using did this just fine, so it's clearly NOT the T100.==========================Actually, I've been testing it more. It appears there is a magnet in the case, but it is either weak or not properly aligned because it only rarely puts the Asus to sleep, and only rarely turns it on when opening the case. This is very disappointing for me. I may return it. I guess the question is, are all of these cases this way or just the one I received? Is there no magnet in the case?

The Pelican case is not really suited for college life. It's designed for protecting your laptop in harsh conditions. It's heavy, and there is not room for any computer accessories. The best overall everyday "case" that I use for my laptop is a backpack made by Swiss Gear - the IBEX backpack. It has plenty of room and protection for a laptop up to 17", pockets and compartments that can accommodate a tablet, a good amount of space for books and other supplies. It's extremely comfortable and durable - and perfect for campus life.

It is heavy for a laptop but I really love it. You wont get anything close to the power it has anywhere near its price. You will also have to get a larger bag to carry it in. I tried a standard 14 inch laptop bag and it was a tight squeeze without anything else in the bag like a charger a mouse and a paper notebook will not fit. I bought a messenger bag for mine. I would have loved to have gotten an Alienware bag or carrying case but they are over priced in my opinion.

Megan, I don't know if the Case Logic Laptop bag will be too snug or not. The only reason my Dell 17.3 in computer is snug is because of the thickness with the touchscreen. I believe my computer is a little over one inch thick. Like I said I like the case even though it is snug with my computer.

Thank you for the helpful information. I guess I will see about getting a cheaper netbook. I looked at a lot of reviews for different ones and they all seem about the same. Do you know which one is the best one to buy? I would like one that has a long battery life.

Mark: we currently use the SwissGear ScanSmart Laptop with a Lenovo G570 and if anything is over the following dimensions it will be a tight fit.
