    i know this question has come up in the past, but i still can't find a sleeve for my new fujitsu S6231. what i'm looking for is a protective sleeve that snuggly fits the laptop costing around or below $20. i've found a few that would fit it, but they're kind of pricey.i don't want a full case or anything, just a flexible sleeve that i can slip my laptop into and then throw into my backpack. if anyone could help me out that would be great.

    here are the dimensions for the S6231
    11.5" x 9.3" x 1.28"(WxDxH)

    Yea, there are custom cases for every cell phone in existance and they only have a shelf life of 6-12 months. Notebook manufacturers update the guts periodically, but the dimensions stay the same. One would think, "hey we got a non standard 13.3" size here, why don't we make something custom for it" so users don't have to settle for a 14.1" case.

    I can't immediately think of one for $20, but for $30 you could have one of these:

    Looking at the measurements, you might just be able to squeeze the 6231 into a size 5, though the fit list says size 4 (which seems a little big to me) . . .
