Then again, I've dropped my laptop several times in the 6 years I've had it and it's been fine so far.
Haven't taken a spill, yet. [Knocking on wood right now.] Living snowless in SoCal has it's benefits, I guess. So, no data to confirm or deny it's crashability. I think the laptop will do better in the plastic container than in my old panniers. The plywood is sturdy, and the plastic box has really strong locking mechanisms. With the rubber straps, it seems pretty well locked in. I hope I never have any experiences to confirm or deny my theory.
