The new unibody Macbook Pro's are pretty tough. They can withstand a drop off a table no problem. I know of at least 2 clients that did it, and they were fine. Apple also takes good care of you as long as you're within the warranty period.
Having said that, I have an old 10 year old VAIO that is still going strong after numerous bumps and abuse, so it seems the Sony's are built well too. My 4 year old 17" HP laptop while still working is suffering from a dimming screen and does not seem as well built as my other laptops.
