Basically I'm trying to put together an all in one case for computer repair house calls. I'd like to have a nice little hardcase that will fit the goods but not be overly bulky or retarded looking. Preferably something that is easily organizable.

1: You want it retarded looking as that will make people think you're more computer savvy.
2: If it's bulky people will think its full of stuff and that you've come prepared.
I rest my case

Pelican cases FTW. Fully customizable cut-foam inserts.

Most of the above is overkill too. What on earth do you need a flight case for? I used to do it with a (half full) laptop bag.
I have a hardcase that came with my Sampson USB mic, and some custom foam inserts. All the tools, cables, connectors, and software that I need to fix damn near anything. Total cost = free, since I had the case anyways.
Pelican cases are a bit of money, but they are awesome, and watertight! I think I posted a review on here a few years ago about a pelican laptop case.. that I dropped on my foot with a 17" laptop in it, and almost broke my toe.
Laptop was fine... and it landed in a mud puddle, and it was POURING rain.

Well, my current kit is:
External cd drive
Techy CD's and some blank CDs and DVDs.
External HDD for larger backups + some goodies on it and categorized folders for backups
Mini-screwdriver set
needle-nose
Wirecutter/strippers.
Sharp philips and a slightly blunt philips along with a regular flathead.
Twist ties
2.5"-3.5" to USB adapter
Believe that's it. I never carry it all but it'd be nice to be able to tuck it all into one place. I'm looking to pick up a small PSU tester too. A netbook would be icing on the cake paired with my cellphone for tethering but I can't afford one atm. I usually just download any drivers I MAY have to use ahead of time.

Harbor Freight has those hard silver briefcase things with the customisable foam on the inside for super cheap.
I bet that's what you're looking for.
