Cooler and case to fit NP9262

Hello all,

First off, I am wondering which notebook cooler would be an ideal fit for the Sager NP9262. I am presently deciding between the two Zalman models; NC1000 and NC2000. The review of the 9262 on this site features pictures of this notebook mounted on an NC1000 and it looks fine I think. From what I have seen, the NC2000 looks larger and bulkier, and I am wondering if there is any benefit to this beyond being able to fit larger systems on it. I must take into consideration the fact that I will be taking the notebook on a one way international flight, so I am thinking I will be better off with the smaller NC1000 unless there is some added benefit to the NC2000 that I am not aware of which would justify its larger size.

As for a bag/case, I am presently considering either the Targus TXL617 or the Pelican 1495. I believe I would be able to fit more stuff in the Targus, but depending on the airline company we take (according to TSA) I'd be able to haul the computer in the Pelican (personal item) plus a regular carry on bag for the other computer stuff (cooler + whatever small stuff) and a change of clothes, etc.

I'm not planning on moving the computer too much after this flight (return trip to the U.S. won't be for a few years) either.

I would very much appreciate any/all suggestions, as this will be my first international flight with a laptop in tow.
