Goodbye Beast, March 15, 2011
This review is from: Brenthaven Crossover SC Laptop Bag for MacBook 13 and 15-Inch, Yellow (2080101) (Personal Computers)
I went from a BrentHaven backpack big enough for a 17" (Beast). It was nice, I used it for 5 years. But the last 4 years I have had a 13" in that bag. I was looking to downsize and this Brenthaven was a great price and it is a great bag. I still can get almost as many books and extra stuff into it as I did with the beast. Great price compared to my $185 price on the first bag! I am extremely picky with tech stuff and it has passed my inspection.

Versatile product, September 13, 2010
This review is from: Brenthaven Crossover SC Laptop Bag for MacBook 13 and 15-Inch, Yellow (2080101) (Personal Computers)
The Brenthaven Crossover is a nice well made and designed product.
It fits my travel needs well, tripling as a backpack, at saddle bag, briefcase.
The pockets are well thought out, zippers seem sturdily constructed. Handles are well placed and the briefcase handles can be hidden. Great price since model is discontinued... <$70
Bought it for my MacBook Pro 15.4". Not as snug as I would like I can include a laptop sleeve.
I figured this will better fit my future MacBook Pro 15 unibody, which is longer/wider.
Minuses for me: color- would want darker, business-like black. Tighter fitting laptop compartment or an adjustable velcro strap would more securely protect laptop. A better quality or better padded shoulder strap.
You may want to check it out in person, with your laptop, before buying.

Great for travel and business, September 20, 2009
This review is from: Brenthaven Crossover SC Laptop Bag for MacBook 13 and 15-Inch, Yellow (2080101) (Personal Computers)
I have found the Crossover bag nearly ideal for my purposes. For air travel I use it as a backpack. In addition, it can be slipped over the handle of a roller suitcase, it has an extremely convenient small opening for passport and tickets (and another one for loose change and keys), and its small size fits easily under the seat (even the aisle seat). For business meetings and other professional uses, I transform it into the more formal-looking, over-the-shoulder bag. In either case, my 15.2" laptop computer is very well protected and held firmly in place by an elastic strap - as far as I can tell it can't budge. For my mixed use, its the best computer case I've tried. It doesn't look bad either.
