The case is fine, but as a bearded guy in the midwest I just cannot be seen out in public with something like this. It's one thing to have a tiny computer, it's another to have a case that looks 100% like a ladies purse and has inexplicably just wayyyy too soft of exterior material, and the shiny metal buckle seals the deal. It was nice of them to throw in this case but it's a no-go for me, just being honest. Nothing wrong with the materials and construction or how it fits the device, it's just not a style for me. Never thought a case could be "too soft" but this thing is ten-ply, if you know what I mean! There's such a thing as "too girly" of a computer case, and a feller oughtta be aware of it! xD
