Default Recommend a shock-proof case for laptop / Macbook pro?

Hey forum-goers!
Wondering if anyone can recommend a heavy duty shock-proof case. Everything on amazon and all major retailers seem to be cases to protect against cosmetic blemishes (scratches, dents). I don't care about the appearance of my laptop, but I do want to project all the valuable internal organs!

Does anyone have a case/skin they'd recommend? I'm not looking for a carrying case - I'm looking for a case/skin that goes ON THE ACTUAL LAPTOP.

Thanks in advance!

Scroll down to get lots of info about the used materials etc.
Seem to be very modern, usable, sturdy yet cool designed
MacBook/Laptop cases.
Further seem to have been tested and approved while Rally
Dakar and Mongol...so should be ok...if true .

Don´t know them personally but it looks and reads well .

Obviously they are Europe based but shipping world wide and not
too expensive actually...€144.- / about $180.-


Cheers.

I never replied, but thanks for the input. I ended up going with a cheap but sturdy Speck case, and just buying a separate padded carrying case for use in transport.
