Thanks for the URL. It's not evident from the picture if the Trager is a hard box or simply a briefcase with semi-rigid panels on the sides. Semi rigid panels only spread shock over a wider area of the computer, they don't transfer forces to the other side of the case through a box like structure. (imagine a load of books, your computer against your back, and shoulder blades pumping as you sprint to catch that next flight) The Zero cases are nice, but they are expensive and bigger than you need if you just want a hard shell that will ride in a backpack.
