Looking for a cheap, but good, laptop case?
I found one at Walmart. It's made by ICON & costs $18.95. You can find it in the TV/electronics section.
It's smart-looking, has lots of pockets, comfortable handle, a detachable shoulder strap & room for a power supply & other accoutrements. Most importantly it's padded along every surface.
I was surprised at the quality. As always, you can't beat Wally for price with a stick.
Sounds pretty nice... gotta love Wal-Mart! (That's one thing I missed in Europe for 3 months... Wal-Mart, and their prices) How big of a computer would the bag hold? (Is it one of these by any chance? - http://www.answers.com/topic/icon-laptop-carrying-case)
Yes, it is at that URL.
The case is called, now get this, the ICON Hacker.
You can isolate it here:

Laying an m200 into the case in landscape mode leaves about one inch above & one inch below of free space and 3 inches to the left if you slide the laptop against the right side. The case includes an ajustable panel inside that you slide up against your laptop to prevent it from sliding around the free space when you carry it. Ingenious!
Amazon sells the Hacker for slightly less than Wally World. However, when you figure in shipping, you're way ahead at Wally's.
By the way, Spence, thanks for resurrecting the site. My tabletpcbuzz jones was killing me.
Wow...that really is a nice case...the picture in the link doesn't give it justice!
I was picking a few things up at Walmart yesterday and decided to see if they had any of the ICON cases... they had a ton of them! Unfortunately, I don't think they're big enough for my R15. :(
