Worth every penny!, April 1, 2006
If anyone is interested in buying a backpack for their computer... this is the one. I've been in school for 7 years studying to get my CPA for the state of Ohio. Going through backpacks is what I do. I carry so many books and lunch that I never have time to relax. After buying this bag, I realized this is the one I should have bought years ago. It's designed to carry any size laptop. The compartments are so spaced out that you can carry anything. I really do love it and would buy it again if I had to.

Perfect backpack for geeks, March 19, 2006
So, being a geek isn't easy. Seriously. I need to carry around a Zd8000 17 inch notebook, its massive power brick, a bluetooth mouse, a cd case, notebooks, mp3 player, psp, DS, computer game controller, etc. Oh yeah, and textbooks. This backpack fits it ALL. It's really quite impressive. And it also withstands the unpredictability of bay area weather.
It's no wonder that so many computer companies (Dell, HP) sell some variation of this model rebranded with their logo.
Be forewarned that this is a big backpack. The profile is just as big whether it's empty or full.
You can't tell from the image but this backpack is also ridiculously well-padded, which is very nice.
If you aren't sure, go to your local computer store and try it on...I know Fry's has it. You won't be disappointed.

A Practical Widscreen Laptop Backpack, April 14, 2007
I am very pleased with this backpack. It fits my 17" widescreen laptop with room to spare. It appears to be a very wellmade product although I have not had it long enough to give it a durability rating. The shoulder straps and back have ample padding. I have not decided if I like the rubber covered handle yet but I think it will be sufficient. The side elastic net pouches hold 16oz water bottles or similar containers nicely.
My own personal negative mark on this product would be the amount of different compartments. There are so many of them! There are so many different areas to stash things I have to search in several different places before I find what I am looking for. Oh, well. I am sure in time I will get used to all the little nooks and crannies of this lovely backpack. Oh yeah, while the laptop is not in the bag, and you have filled up all those front compartments, the bag becomes 'front heavy' and won't stand upright when leaned up against something. Not the end of the world though, I just turn the bag around and butt the front of the bag up against the wall and it sits upright rather obediently.
I really love that the overall appearance of this backpack does not scream out "Hey, there is a laptop in here, come and steal me!". I have never been comfortable housing my laptop in a bag labeled with a very bold name tag like 'Targus' or 'Case Logic'. The bag makes it very obvious that there is a computer or other electronic device in the bag. That calls the attention of would be thieves and who needs that? I travel with my laptop through major international airports several times a year. I like knowing that no one has any clue as to whether or not I am carring a bag of rocks or a $2,000 laptop in my backpack.
My only regret is that it took me so long to find this terrific bag. I bought two other bags before this for my 17" widescreen with little success. That's why I thought I must write a review about this terrific bag. The product descriptions usually don't help very much. Since you can't see it in person, the next best thing is reading a review from someone who has.
Good luck and happy shopping!
