I personally would not. These cases will clip on to the MacBook in one way or another. Due to the current Macbook's thinness, his may put stress on areas of the MacBook that may cause damage.

I would use a padded sleeve or bag that the MacBook would fit into rather than a case that attaches to the MacBook.

The same goes for a screen protector...the tolerances between the LCD screen and the keyboard/palmrest do not allow for any additional thickness, such as that of (even a very thin) screen protector or palmrest protector.
