Thanks for the responses to my case question. I think I'm looking for something that doesn't exist - a briefcase (probably made of leather) not much bigger than the iBook that has just enough room for power supply and a thin book or two without adding bulk, preferably one that allows you to use the computer without removing it from the case. I found something like it on the Web, from an educational company called DiSistotech, that I am considering: http://www.disistotech.com/case_large.jpg Thanks again to a very helpful and cordial list!
