A carrying case is provided for electronic equipment such as a notebook computer. The carrying case includes a frame defining a area for placing the electronic equipment therein such that the frame is in at least partial surrounding relation relative to the electronic equipment. The frame includes a top frame portion and side frame portions extending generally perpendicularly from opposite ends of said top frame portion. A sling includes a first flexible material section and a second flexible material section. The first section depends from a front edge of the top frame portion such that a free end portion thereof is positioned a predetermined distance from the top frame portion. The second section has a back portion positioned in substantially the same vertical plane defined by a back edge of the top frame portion and has a free opposite end portion. A fastener is also provided for releasably securing to each other the free end portions of the first and second sections to define a cradle in the area. Thus, the electronic equipment is adapted to be supported in vertically spaced relation from a support surface on which the carrying case rests as long as the fastener maintains the free end portions of the first and second sections in releasably fastened relation relative to each other. In addition, the opening of the fastener allows movement of the first and second sections of the sling to provide access to the electronic equipment from the front of the area.
