  • wow, it looks fantastic! if i had the money atm i would definitely buy it!
  • Weird, usually these articles are blocked for comments. In any case, I guess it's a good option for someone who needs a lot of protection for their laptop. But in this case it's a shame to hide such a sublime design as the one in the Surface Book inside this.
  • What the hell is this atrocity
  • oh man, theyt should have put a kickstand feature on the back of the clipboard case portion
  • This would be quite useful if I could convince my boss that I need a Surface Book for working in road construction sites. Enter my reports on site and look good doing it. Wish me luck.
  • Do not buy this!!!!! It looks good but I used one on my Surface Book and it made my hinge loose..............thank goodness I bought it at Best Buy.
