Protective case for a computing device and method of use

A case for a computing device, the case comprising:

• a first portion operatively connected to a second portion through a linking member along an adjoining edge of the first and second portions, each portion having an internal device receiving surface and an external device protecting surface;
• the linking member operable to permit the first and second portions to move between a closed state and an open state, wherein in the closed state, opposing lateral edges of the first and second portions are in communication thereby forming a protective shell for the computing device defined between adjoining external device protecting surfaces of the first and second portions;
• one or more device fastening members disposed on each of the first and second portions;
• and
• a plurality of perimetral fastening members disposed on the second portion, each perimetral fastening member being operable to detachably fasten to the computing device,
• wherein at least one of the perimetral fastening members is centrally positioned on an upper edge of the second portion,
• wherein at least two of the perimetral fastening members are corner fastening members disposed in opposing corners of the second portion, wherein each corner fastening member extends outwardly from the perimeter of the second portion and includes a central portion extending outwardly from the second portion further than and disposed between corresponding shoulder portions.
