So i just bought my new £800 laptop which should arrive soon. Needless to say i've got no case.
1. I'm in the Uk and if you can find it on amazon great cause i've got prime
2. Need a good shoulder strap
3. budget of around £15 - £30 at most
4. needs to look good if possible
5. would be helpful to have some impact protection included in bag on sides and bottom.

thanks for your help

regards
sparky

Thule makes some really nice stuff. I've got the Thule Gauntlet for my macbook and it's phenominal.

May or may not fit your laptop as they're designed for macbooks. I got mine for $35 and  this sleeve plus my thule backpack is really great for bringing my laptop to school, especially with the water resistance and padding.

 

Thule also makes some universal cases I'd check out. I had a thule stravan deluxe and was extremely satisfied with it.

proud owner of alienware 13 with graphic amplifier and also a alienware X51 gaming PC!!! really powerfulL!!

Bought a sleeve off of Amazon for like $15 for my MBA. It's cheap but it's a solid neoprene sleeve that gets the job done. Brand is CaseLogic.
