I recently switched from a PowerBook to a MacBook Pro (a little faster, a lot flakier), but I'm still using my minimalist MarWare Sportfolio Deluxe to lug it around. The MarWare case is great, but it has a signature annoyance: the shoulder strap mounting clips squeak incessantly. I've tried oil (nope), I've tried scotch tape (works until it wears out, looks ugly), but I may finally have found the cure:
Heatshrink! A short length of 3/8" black heatshrink tubing around the clip seems to have cured the squeak. I hope the tubing will last until Apple changes notebook form factors again.
