I find it better to replace my laptop case every 3 years. 9 years ago, it had a compartment for floppy drives, but nothing for CD's or DVD's.
6 years ago, I had a smaller laptop and I had way too much wasted space so I got another one - this time, an overnighter so I could put in two days worth of clothes. And there's compartments for digital cameras and cellphone so I had to buy this one.
3 years ago, everything's much smaller now so I get another one that has smaller and more frequent compartments for my flash drives, memory cards, LED flashlight, etc.
Now, I just ordered another one that's a little bigger, with even more compartments (laser pointer, extra batteries, battery charger, airplane plugs, etc.) and can fit 3 days of clothes.
It's made out of leather. Or do you really have to have the animal prints?
