Ahh, well if it's less sand, and more squish I say get a load bearing case.
Laptop screens react badly to non-lateral (anything that isn't pushing from the sides) forces. It's one of the drawbacks to having them so light and thin
Pelican sets the bar in this department (they also seem to offer military discounts)
Depending on how much force you expect to be dropped on the case will determine how much foam you need inside (and how thick the case ends up being).
I've seen them hit with a sledge hammer and the contents be fine afterwards.
