I just went down to REI and bought a $100 bag that was a little bigger than I  
needed.  Then I went to one of those packaging stores and got them to cut me $4  
worth of foam.  Voila!  Instant cheap-o carrying case (it's even black!) that I  
can use for other things.

Best of all, it doesn't look like a computer case so it's less likely to be  
stolen.

Don't forget to take a screwdriver with you to open the NeXT at security.   
Also, calling them first seems to make them pretty mellow. Sometimes I just get  
to walk through without opening the NeXT!
