 What about re-using the carton the laptop came in? The cartons all seem to
come with supporting internal framework & seem like they would accomplish
the goals you outlined.

 That is clearly the way to go IF YOU HAVE IT. Very few people keep them

It's too bad there is no FAQ for this group.
EVERYONE WHO PURCHASES A NEW LAPTOP SHOULD MAKE A POINT OF KEEPING ITS
SHIPPING CONTAINER UNTIL THE LAPTOP IS DISCARDED OR DISPOSED OF. Can't
stress that enough.

There are people who keep boxes (not just for laptops) and people who
don't. And never the 'twain shall meet.
