I don't know of any personally, but I have seen custom handles as after market hardware, so one can carry the case more easily. I also seen platforms with wheels, kinda like a furniture moving dolly at the local office supply store...eg OfficeMax and Staples. That are specifically designed for PC's.

I don't think that you will find a ready made case like you described, but then you aren't very specific. I think the best you could do is to improvise something yourself. For rollers, I would recommend Lian Li WB-01 or WB-02 rollers. As far as the enclosure, you could use a simple cover for local storage. If you wanted something for transport purposes, probably the easiest thing would be to craft a wooden case. You could even pad it in a fashion to protect against impact.

I've seen some of these Link Removed
made from a nylon webbing type material which appear to be adjustable.

This is the most presentable transporter that you can get. It's compact and foldable. It's actually a luggage trolley. You just need some padding as shock absorbers for your PC.

Or this one if your CPU will fit (you can get the frame separately) :

Sweet! Thanks guys! That gives me some new ideas. I would say the closest thing so far to what I was imagining was this one: (See Attached) but I like the idea of a padded wooden case as well. I think that shouldn't be too hard to make.

I am thinking probably a second carrying case similar to the one that holds the desktop PC and if you are getting really creative, they will both be interior padded hard shell cases much like a guitar case with the double skateboard wheels. ))
