Case carrying straps

A friend and I are going to be attending a large, 250-man LAN party up in Dublin next month. Trouble is, we're three hundred miles away down in Cork, and while transport is going to be easy enough thanks to trains, buses and taxi's, I worry for my computer case. It's brand new and if it was damaged, I'd be put out, to say the least. Now, I did attend a previous incarnation of this LAN along with Rohaq and Ben0207, but while they travelled over from the UK in Rohaq's car, I had to come up by train, carrying my midi tower pc. The way I handled it last time was to put all components into a sports bag and carry that on my shoulder, while carrying my pc in my arms. It was awkward, to say the least, and I promised myself the last time that I wouldn't be doing that again.
So, I'm interested in getting a harness for both my pc and my monitor. Last time around, someone gave me the loan of a TFT monitor, which was helpful as all I had at the time was a CRT, and there was no way I could carry that. I was thinking that, this time around, I'll carry my pc in one hand with a harness, and getting one for my new TFT monitor that I can carry on my back, while holding all the other components in the same sports bag as last time. What I need to know is if anyone can recommend any particular brand of carrying straps? Has anyone had any experience with them? I don't want to get a cheap pair that will snap after twenty minutes of carrying them.

...and I thought of how all those people died, and what a good death that is. That nobody can blame you for it, because everyone else died along with you, and it is the fault of none, save those who did the killing.
