Review: 1490 vs. 1470 - Here is what I found to be the situation with the 1490 vs. 1470: If you have a 15 inch laptop, it will fit in either one, no problem. If you want a little added depth to maybe bring a power bank or your charger along, the 1490 will do it easily where you need use a little strategy and compromise with the 1470. Both are durable and Pelican known quality. To me, the 1490 just steps into the 'won't fit in my backpack or duffle bag easily' category. No big deal, but for some it may dissuade. I appreciate the roominess of the 1490 a little more than the 1470, not for the added foam protection, but for the placement of the laptop, power bank and charger. If you are thinking about the 1470 vs 1490, both will accommodate a 15 inch laptop (Toshiba Satellite) with ease, however even at a pound heavier and noticeably larger the 1490 won me over due to charger room.
Review: Great case, perfect for a handgun, spare magazines and cleaning kit - I've used Pelican cases throughout my career in the Navy and knew there was only one choice when buying a case to store my new Sig Sauer P226 in. Shipping was quick and the case arrived as described. I can easily fit my gun, 4 spare magazines, and a cleaning kit in it. I haven't done any traveling yet with the case, but my previous experiences with other Pelican cases has always been positive. I trust Pelican with whatever I throw in the case and have another bigger case on order for my shotgun. The peace of mind is worth the price.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I want to use this to keep my laptop safe when sailing. While I do not expect it to get dunked, exactly how waterproof is it?**
A: This will take your computer to hell and back submerged or not

**Q: Hey, does this case work for the new 15 inch Macbook Pro with Retina display?**
A: NO, absolutely not, the only way it fits is if you add about a 1" pice of foam. There is a version of this case that comes with a peel away foam insert that will allow the 15" retina macbook pro to fit snugly in the case. I am not sure but I think it ends in BC or something versus the CC of this case. I have this 1095CC case and a retina 15" macbook, the only way it fits without bouncing around all over inside the case is with a foam pies that works well enough to keep it from knocking around inside.

**Q: How watertight is this case?**
A: It close pretty tight on the front of the case. But nos so well on the sides. I can say that it is water-splash proof but not submergible. If the design had 2 more clips on the sides, it would be A LOT more waterproof...

**Q: What are dimensions of individual pick-pluck cubes? 
How many cubes in each direction?
Is there more than one layer so that depth can be adjusted in different places?**
A: Each cube is about 1cm, in a grid of 23x17. There is a second non-cubed layer below, and below that is the hard plastic bottom.
