best 12 - 13" laptop slim bag?

[holden j caufield]

I've got a mobile desktop but my new ultrabook does almost everything I need now and I end up using it 90% of the time. I just can't find a good case for it. I do need to an extra compartment to carry a charger and my 1tb portable drive. Work is approved it so I can expense it under $100.

Read, was about to recommend then screeched to a halt at $100.

That said, I like some of what STM has to offer. And they have a lifetime warranty. Not a fan of nylon messengers so not kept the ones I bought for long, but when a Convertible which I passed to a friend prematurely fell apart I know they replaced it immediately.

e.g. Alley Air: http://www.radtech.us/products/shoulderbags/stmalley
$45.

For a hundred or less, stick to nylon or at best, canvas.
