Would you like a shipping case to transport your PC to LANs?

[RushanNeill]

I've read a few threads about transporting PCs to LAN parties/tournaments, since I face the same issue. All I could find though, everywhere online, is either a "carrying-strap" or a luggage case. In my opinion this is ridiculous. Why can't gamers have a nice hard-body case with wheels and of a fair size to transport their systems and peripherals.
Also, what about a laptop bag with enough space for all your accessories, headset included, without looking weird and lopsided??
Is this a problem you also face? Have you found any good solutions, and what are they?
I have created an online questionnaire that deals with this matter (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1gq7ELn2mV_kBCXm6tu05vUW9c_C8X9upeXgnxOWdyw0/edit) if you people would like to fill it out.
P.S: Yes, this is a business idea I am considering. I've asked Johnathan (Fatal1ty) Wendel and he agrees that this is a problem, and would like to see a product for it. He is keen on the laptop bag, because as he says: "Many gamers are going mobile nowadays."
All input valued!!! Thank you.

Somebody invented a suitcase with wheels you can drive, otherwise, having a car is a good idea.

Sorry for the late reply.
So you just put your PC in your car? And all the other things? It just seems like a hassle to me to lug around an ultra tower and then separate peripherals too. For laptop gamers there are things such as the Everki Titan laptop trolley or backpack, but what about PC gamers?
Do you maybe have a link to the suitcase you mentioned?

Yes, I just lay it down in the trunk of my car on a blanket or something soft, nothing ever broke. Delivery and moving services are much more rough in handling them yet they ship all over the world.
While I was servicing computers I carried hundreds of them like that from and to customers.
There are also many suitcases, soft or hard with extendable handle and wheels, no need for a special one. Motorized one I have seen in http://newatlas.com/ although in my old age I find it unnecessary.
If weather is cold, it's good form to let it stay unplugged for a while until it acclimatizes and gets to room temperature or condensation may occur.

Thanks CountMike. But, can you put your case and monitor both in a suitcase, or will they rub each other up the wrong way? 😉

Providing case is large enough and both would fit, place something soft in between. Most monitors have easily detachable stand and that can help a lot. A suitcase with a pocket can hold keyboard, mouse and accessories.
It's been long time since I went to a lan party but that's how I packed. It's easier nowadays when you can have quite powerful desktop computer, much more powerful than any laptop, in a very small package. If I was to carry a desktop around, that's what I would build it.
